All the winding pathways of your life have led you here. To the forest. How you got here doesn't matter - what's important is what waits for you within. The forest holds the answer; to what question is for you to decide.

Arbor is an interactive horror novella in which you explore an ancient, uncanny forest. Randomisation and player choice combine to create a unique journey each time, with a number of possible outcomes. Seek the heart of the forest, and discover secrets sleeping deep in the earth.
