The Forest: Half An Hour Of John Trying And Failing To Hit Animals With An Axe

Chasing Bambi

Having returned to The Forest last week, I really didn't want to stop playing. I ended up spending an afternoon I'd booked off as holiday back in front of it, and recorded half an hour or so of that. To share! After spotting a giant sinkhole, and being so excited I had to hit record, it's safe to say there's some early disappointment. But then as I keep exploring, there's lots of new things to discover, and indeed needlessly hit with an axe. You can watch it below.

The game is quite extraordinary, so it's a bit of a shame I kept uncovering mistakes or moments of crudeness here. But still, my treehouse! My treehouse! Also, the squealing. Look, it's properly scary!
