Landlord of the Woods

Feeling that life is passing you by, you take a new job as landlord of a forest. You travel through the woods to meet five unusual residents and collect their rent.

Each tenant has a request to fulfill before they pay. Point, click, search, and move objects around to complete hidden-object, logic, and physics-based puzzles.

Progress through the residents’ tasks as a short, hand-drawn story unfolds. Its strange woodland setting and gentle, surreal tone frame a story about work, purpose, and comparing yourself to others.

Players often enjoy the distinctive hand-drawn art, music, and blend of cozy charm with eerie, macabre details. Many describe the puzzles as relaxing and straightforward, and the story’s ending as surprising; some also connect with its theme of feeling behind in life. Others find the puzzles too easy or the experience too brief, and a smaller number report glitches that interrupt progress.
