🐺 To the Wolves by Spider Lily Studios 🐺

We're continuing spotlights of games from our members in @baiyu's Queer Halloween Stories Bundle! As mentioned, each game is by a queer dev or dev team, and they're almost halfway to their goal. Support them to play some queer horror!

Today's spotlight is TO THE WOLVES, a survival horror interactive fiction game. Play as Ella, a young girl sacrificed to the wolves of the forest, and seek justice (or vengeance) for those who came before you.

A screenshot of stark text. It says: as your breathing steadies, you take in your surroundings. You’ve run further than you’d thought. More than likely the villagers have long since returned, satisfied that you will not. The howling fades out. It seems the wolves haven’t caught your scent, despite the village’s best efforts. You don’t know whether to laugh or cry.

With three endings, guide Ella as she explores the forest, and risk encounters with ever-watchful wolves. Will you seek revenge against your former village? Or aim to live in peace? And if you can – for how long?

A screenshot of stark text. It says: your father taught you how to dress rabbits when you were little. One long cut from one end to the other. When the skin splits the meat looks the same. Your hands move quickly. The ribs splinter easily, too easily, under your palms. Here’s the heart – just a hunk of muscle. It hits the dirt with a wet thud. You bundle up your steaks in a ragged shirt and leave the carcasses where they fell. Between them sits a pile of still-steaming entrails. No use to you, now.Spoils in hand, you head back to the hut.
