Features

Micro Forest transports us in front of a television connected to a videogame console, where we observe Minnatsuki, who is in a verdant pair of islands with a retro game aesthetic. Grassy fields and dense vegetation cover the ground, while the dark waters surrounding the islands show a distorted reflection of the sky above, including earth itself.

As the title screen disappears, Minnatsuki appears next to a campsite, where a person wearing a yellow shirt sits in front of a bonfire. Interacting with the bonfire allows Minnatsuki to roast and eat a marshmallow. Southwards, a wooden cabin can be found, which contains nothing but a pair of tables, chairs and a colorful flag. Three docks are located just next to this building, including one with a boat owned by Fred, who ferries Minnatsuki to the southern island on interaction.

After a short boat trip, Minnatsuki reaches a small, locked shack. Descending from here starts the Haunted Console event, during which a shadow leads us across the dense forest, eventually guiding us to an open cabin. Interacting with the shadow at this point dissolves it into the ground, prompting a monochromatic figure with two large, white eyes to slowly emerge from our right side, moving towards the television.

Entering the cabin previously guarded by the shadow reveals a single key, which can be used on the locked shack all the way back to our arrival point. The inside of the locked building reveals an egg, however, once obtained, the monochrome girl jumps closer to the screen, now showing a creepy smile while the television screen alternates to static until Minnatsuki wakes up.
