Mable and the Forest is a Metroidvania about a girl who walks through the forest, killing the forest creatures she encounters, stealing their powers and forms and using them to kill more creatures in a sad and endless cycle of violence. And if that sounds good to you, you’ll be happy to know that it’s free for the next few days at GOG as part of their ongoing spring sales.
To claim the game, go to GOG and scroll down the home page until you see the “Mable and the Wood” banner. Click on the “Get it Free” button and you are ready to play: The game will be added to your account immediately.
The way you move is lethal. Mable carries a sword that is too heavy to lift, so she turns into a fairy and leaves it in place. You can then call the sword back into your hand to cut through enemies on your way.
You can only maintain your non-human form for a limited time, but killing creatures will increase your power.
Defeat the great beasts to take their shape and transform into a mole, a jellyfish, a spider and more…
Find and defeat the other bosses to unlock even more shapes!
The game takes place in a dark fantasy world where each area is part of a vast and complex map full of secrets to be discovered.
Discover secrets that you can use to find alternative, non-combatant routes around the world and uncover another side of the story (and different endings!).
Discover a deep story and define your own role in it. Will you be the savior that everyone wants, or will your actions cause the world to fall apart?
