"If you're a fan of survival horror games, Through the Woods is a mesmerizing experience you'll want to encounter. Sometimes the deep emptiness of a rich forest is enough to give you goosebumps."

"It's rare these days that any game comes close to emulating the walking nightmare nature of the original three Silent Hill games, but the 'double protagonist' of the real-time and voiced-over mother, beautiful yet desolate environments, and the jarring, painfully honest story make Through the Woods one of the most compelling horror games of the year."
