Birth, the fawn.

I started this game minutes after accidentally stumbling across it in a google search for "deer masks." I consider myself quite good at reading animal body language, something I have studied for many years. Natuarally, a game where the only speech comes from that silent language appealed to me. I started the game completely unaware of how honest a statement that was: No explanations for the action bars, no north or south, no quests, no tasks, no tutorial. For me, it was overwhelming the first two times I played. By the thirt time I figured out how to zoom and have brief conversations as a playful fawn to my peers and the stags.
Now, I have favorite places; temples in the forest, totems, trees, flowers. The more I play the more entriguing the adventure is. Throwing loud, talkative humans into a silent peaceful world and watching how they transform themselves into the graceful deer is a stunning and lovely concept.
This is the story of how I grow into a stag.

It's always nice to read

It's always nice to read first-time experiences. Yes, you do get thrown into the deep with this artwork! I've hung around for three years, and I still find out new things once in a while. It's rather amazing.
So, hi! Welcome to the endless forest!

Welcome Quay! I agree, it

Welcome Quay!

I agree, it was quite a task to deal with the lack of verbal communication, but it makes things much more interesting (and peaceful)!

There is a list of Forest Actions on the Game Info page, but you probably don't need them anymore. Eye
