Werewolf: The Apocalypse - Heart of the Forest is a great visual novel with tons of impactful choices, great visuals, and excellent sound design. While it slowly loses steam after the introductory chapters, it's still well worth multiple playthroughs.

6/10
Werewolf: The Apocalypse - Heart of the Wolf has a lot of promise, starting out very strong but it's ultimately let down by what feels like a very rushed last couple of chapters.

3.5/5 stars
With a unique art style, effective use of sound and plenty of lore, Heart of the Forest is well worth checking out if you're a fan of visual novels and the werewolf genre itself. It's just a shame there wasn't more of it.

Beautiful but short
It is really pretty and interesting, but in the end I played it through in 2 hours. Great for a short little experience, but I feel like they could have sprung for a longer story as the potential was there. Giving 4 stars because we got little but what we got was really good! Just needed to get fleshed out more. I recommend you get it on sale.

Brilliant visual narrative rpg
I loved this game! I played through every possible outcome, character type and ending ( I think! ) and enjoyed every single moment of it. The art is wild and creative, the lore and game felt true to World of Darkness werewolves, the characters were diverse! (LGBTIQ+), the various narrative and RP options were clever, well written and engaging, and there are quite a few hidden gems to find. I've played a lot of visual narrative rpgs and this is by far my fave'. Mad props and thanks to the game designers.

Werewolf fans will be let down.
If endless dialogue between edgy modern kids, Bad writing, and cheesy artwork are your thing, Then this may be the Werewolf experience you've been dreaming of. If you're a traditional werewolf fan hoping for a rich story and lots of fun werewolf shenanigans, Then this is not the game for you. Right from the get go it inserts strong politics, I can let you guess from which side, And forces you into one mindset, a very closed one. Probably the worst thing I have purchased here, and will be getting my $1.49 back.

Really poorly done game!
Quite possibly the worst game I've ever played. This is NOT a true rpg. It's more like a poorly illustrated story with multiple choice questions to determine the twists and turns of the story. If you're hoping for an interactive game similar to Vampire The Masquerade you will be sorely disappointed as this game has neither the interaction or the storyline to hold a candle to it. Combat is not the least bit interactive and yet another disappointment.
