Today we delve into the We Harvest Shadows Demo, follow along as we start our farm, discover secrets and try to survive the night.
From the creator of The First Tree comes We Harvest Shadows, an emotional first-person narrative game with farming and horror elements. Players take control of Garrett, a transplant from the city who has exiled himself to an abandoned farm for the rest of his life. He thinks the world is better without him in it.
Each new day brings a new to-do list. Players will fix up their house, care for livestock, and improve their farmstead, all while exploring the hundreds of acres surrounding the farm. But in the quiet of the lonely nights, something stirs. Is Garrett truly alone? Or is something stalking him from the shadows?
Taking inspiration both from slow-burn P.T.-style psychological horror games and Edith Finch-style personal first-person titles, this game plays on poignant horror themes to gradually imagine a terrifying vision that Garrett must save himself from-until the soul-shaking end.
Key Features
Experience a slow-burn horror/drama focused on atmosphere and storytelling instead of jump scares.
Explore miles of abandoned Appalachian wilderness, set to a gorgeous cinematic soundtrack.
Focus on building your farmstead instead of worrying about hunger, thirst, or an inventory screen in this "Survival-lite" experience.
Clean and organize your house to help prevent hauntings and regain your sanity.
Optimize your farm to earn money and buy new vehicles, tools, and player upgrades.
Piece together the mystery of Garrett's life via flashbacks, voiceovers, and journal entries.
We Harvest Shadows is a gaming experience unlike anything else. It's relaxing yet terrifying. It’s beautiful yet ugly. It’s the type of experience which sits with you for years after the closing credits.
