The Fabled Woods is a visually impressive narrative short story set in a very picturesque environment. The game is all about marveling at your surroundings and soaking up the atmosphere, but the story could have been more immersive. With the right hardware, the game looks incredible, but it is a pity that the overall story doesn’t quite reach the same heights. If you are a fan of the genre it is worth a play, but aside from the visuals, there’s nothing here that really pushes the envelope for these types of games.

Gameplay: The story starts strong and mysterious, but feels somewhat rushed towards the end.

Graphics: With the right hardware the game looks downright incredible.

Sound: An atmospheric soundtrack and decent voice acting
