Teamwork in couch co-op: in Wild Woods you guide little cats through a dangerous forest

Wild Woods is a cute co-op game that comes at just the right time for Christmas. Accompany a troop of cats through a forest and extend your claws as night falls.

There should be a lot more couch co-op games, don't you think? And cats. Cats always go anyway. In Wild Woods, you'll be travelling through dangerous forest areas with these cute but fierce furry friends - alone or in co-op with up to four players. Collect resources on your risky journey, take the right path for the four-legged friends at forks in the road and fend off a variety of attackers.

Also important: The flame on your cart should always be burning if possible, as the forest areas of Wild Woods are particularly dangerous at night. At the end of a section, you will often stumble into a boss fight. Be well prepared and don't forget to regularly upgrade your vehicle.

Developer Octofox Games and publisher Daedalic Entertainment have now launched Wild Woods in the Early Access phase. Here's the launch trailer for the game - and if you enjoy accompanying defenceless velvet paws on their adventurous journey, you can get away with buying it for less: at £11.68 / $13.48 (-10%), Wild Woods is cheaper than any visit to the vet.
