Xbox Live Gold subscribers on Xbox One, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X can now download a new free game through Games With Gold July 2023, and it's an ideal choice for horror game enthusiasts. While the golden age of horror games may be in the past, there are still notable releases in the genre each year, albeit mostly from smaller indie developers. Darkwood, an indie game released in 2017, is currently available for free until the end of the month for Xbox Live Gold members.
Developed and published by Acid Wizard Studio, Darkwood has received positive acclaim. It holds a solid score of 80 on Metacritic and boasts a "Very Positive" user review rating on Steam, with 94 percent of nearly 14,000 user reviews recommending the game.
In Darkwood, players navigate an open world set in corrupted woods. During the daytime, they can explore, scavenge weapons and materials, and build defenses. However, as night falls, the game transforms into a tense survival experience. Players must hunker down, fortify their surroundings with traps and barriers, and contend with the creatures that emerge in the darkness. Darkwood offers a unique blend of atmospheric horror, relying more on building tension rather than jump scares. Surviving the night with both body and mind intact is no easy task. Good luck!
