What a horrible night to have a curse…

A mushroom-obsessed witch caught you nibbling her special mushroom. The sentence: fill her basket by dawn, every night or be turned into a mushroom yourself.

Each night you slip a little deeper into a mapless forest, foraging by moonlight against a ticking clock. Make it home and deposit a full basket before sunrise. Miss the quota, and the curse creeps one notch closer to taking root.

But the basket grows. The further you reach, the more it demands and something deep in the woods is beginning to stir.

Break the curse

Why does she need so many mushrooms? Reach the deep forest, learn the truth behind the quota, and decide the fate of everyone bound to the curse.
