Roots Don’t Burn
A downloadable Roots Don’t Burn
You wake up in a forest that feels familiar — and hostile at the same time.
You don’t speak. You don’t explain. You only observe, remember, and write.
Roots Don’t Burn is a psychological horror experience focused on atmosphere, isolation, and fragmented memory. The world reacts subtly to your presence. Visions blur the line between reality and imagination, and the further you go, the more the environment begins to reflect what you tried to bury.
Your notebook is your only voice.
It documents visions, thoughts, and clues — but it may not always tell the truth.
This is not a game about fighting.
It’s about endurance, interpretation, and unease.
