Slay gun foxes, build ladders, and avoid the night! Forge your path down to grandma's house with the help of online strangers.
Join little red riding hood as she attempts to visit her grandmother deep in the forest. Many enemies and obstacles block the way, meaning that Red needs to create a path in order to make it deeper and deeper as the days go by. Luckily you can receive help from other players in a “strand-like” way, meaning that paths and structures placed by other players can appear in your world, just like how your structures can appear in future or current players’. Make sure not to stay out too long to avoid the knife wolves and enjoy getting deeper and deeper into the forest until you make it to the end.

The knife wolves come out at night! Sleep in your cabin to heal and start the next day.
Get to grandma's house! Unfortunately we didn't have time to implement an actual win state, so if you find grandma's house at the bottom of the map, consider that winning.
- Chop down stick bushes to gain ladders, ladders can be placed on cliffs.
- Other player structures and paths appear in the morning, so don't forget to sleep if you're stuck.
- Getting to grandma's house requires help from others, so be on the lookout for any already-placed ladders.
- Torches and bushes get replenished every morning, but ladders do not.
