We're excited to announce the release date of the first ever Pumpkin Woods Playtest! Starting October 1st till Halloween, you will be able to play as much as you want! While you wait, learn more about the 4 biomes included in this version:
The Woods
The gateway to the region is a calm and bucolic forest with scattered pine trees and vast open areas. Being the safest and most well known biome, it's the favorite place by the local inhabitants to set up traditional Halloween decorations.
Pumpkin Woods
This infamous forest with giant pumpkins is strictly avoided by most folks due to the ever growing presence of wolves and harmful plants. The sunlight is blocked by ancient overgrown trees while crows eerily warn those who venture in these dark woods.
Enchanted Forest
Also known as Fairywood, these secluded and pristine areas are nothing short of magical. Known to possess mystical creatures and otherworldly flora, it has mostly been left untouched due to old legends about those who never return.
Mining Town
Following the discovery of large precious gems, settlers from far away lands rushed to this mostly barren region. Its golden days are long gone, and these now isolated settlements are more akin to ghost towns.
