The Snowy Forest () is a large area connected to the Dark Room and the Techno Condominium.
Features
The Snowy Forest is a large horizontally-looping area filled with snow-covered dormant trees, as well as other sights such as streams, cliff faces, and more distinct elements. It can be entered and exited through a huge tree found in the middle of the field, as well as a tall isometric building that leads to the Techno Condominium.
Travel through this area is limited by time; at first, the area appears to have a dark blue tint as if at nighttime, but as the player explores the area, the tones will get progressively brighter and warmer, akin to a sunrise. After about two minutes, the screen will fade to white, and Urotsuki will be forced to wake up. Due to the extremely strict timer, it's recommended that the player bring the Bat effect with them, so that if the timer appears to be reaching its end, Urotsuki can fly back to an earlier portal and leave the map, resetting it. In addition. if the player brings the Crossing effect with them, they can use it to freeze time, allowing their exploration to extend indefinitely.
The world has two main sections, the cliff face and the fields at the bottom (and top) of the cliff face. The snow field is lined with dirt roads and creeks, and if you travel far enough north you can find the spring of the stream. In addition to the condominium and the huge tree that leads to the Dark Room, the player can also find the car and tent of the Victim. The Victim can be seen alive if the player hurries, but if they take too long to find them they'll find them hanging from the tree, dead. If the player uses their chainsaw on them, the animation that follows will be much more gruesome than usual. Using the Telephone effect will make them dial the phone for help, rescuing him as a result.
Urotsuki can reach the ledges of the cliff face by walking through the Winter Path, a small sub-map where the trees take on a far more psychedelic appearance, and the path itself is lined with glowing blocks (Though you can travel outside the beaten path and see the other trees). On the other side of the Winter Path is the cliff face, which is significantly more difficult to navigate, though if the player looks around they can find a mass of roots that they can enter using the Fairy effect. The inside of the mass of roots is a dark hallway that eventually leads out into a beautiful spring populated by green plants and colorful flowers, the only such area in the world.
In addition, by heading north-west after leaving the Winter Path onto the cliff face, the player can find a conspicuous spot that plays a different sound effect from normal, as if stepping on a hard floor instead of in snow. Messing around at this spot using the usual interact key will allow the player to reveal a secret trapdoor underneath this spot that leads to the Alien Cellar.
