    This one is a joke. I think the worst japanese VN might be better than Werewolf: The Apocalypse. Bleak story, weak characters (with no appropriate graphics representation!!!), which are not memorable and player does not give a crap about them... in a freaking Visual Novel! RPG elements exists, but they serve little purpose. A bad joke, unfortunately.

    Worth waiting so long for this IP. Feels and plays out like a rpg session in a candle-lit basement.

    Muy respetuoso con el juego original, la cosmología garou ,esta muy bien representada .Para los amantes de mundo de tinieblas, es una excelente opción.El único punto negativo , es su modesto apartado técnico.

    This game didn't really keep my interest. Feels way overrated than it should be.

    Una temática novedosa, si bien no es un juegazo, es algo distinto, con unos gráficos buenos sin ser espectaculares. Para pasar un rato descuartizando y dando brincos y seguir la historia es entretenido.

    Really nice approach to this smaller brand in the World of Darkness Universe. Slightly better than Shadows & Coteries of New York.

    Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Heart of the Forest is an impeccably written story that dynamically reacts to player input and choice. Though it presents no real challenge, fans of both visual novels and the World of Darkness tabletop game will find it a captivating and highly replayable role-playing experience.

    Heart of the Forest is an instantly gripping, beautifully illustrated visual novel with a nicely branching storyline, difficult choices, and skillfully introduced RPG elements. [13/2020, p.42]

    Short RPG story about being a werewolf. Excellent script and ambient sounds easily bring you into the heart of the forest filled with adventures. [Issue#308]
