A colorful old-school dungeon crawler

Rotwood is a side-scrolling adventure game from Klei Interactive in which you’ll fight your way through the forest, battling beasts and critters to save the rot-afflicted woods with up to 3 of your friends. Taking inspiration from old-school beat-em-ups, Rotwood is a co-op dungeon crawler that features more cartoonish and colorful animations than its traditional counterparts.

Similar to other games from Klei Interactive that came before it, like Don’t Starve and Invisible Inc., Rotwood features high-quality graphics, an immersive story, and excellent gameplay, regardless of the genre.

What is the objective of Rotwood?

The main goal of the characters in Rotwood is to save the rot-afflicted woods from corrupted critters that threaten their survival. To do so, you must complete a series of increasingly difficult challenges while making your way through the dense forest. Along the way, collect what remains on the battlefield to craft new weapons and forge a safe haven.

Who is Rotwood suitable for?

Rotwood is ideal for those who love the style of old-school side-scrolling games and wish to play with friends. As an online co-op, Rotwood can be played with up to 3 of your friends as well as solo.

With a captivating soundtrack and colorful modern animations, Rotwood is also perfect for young adults. With toned-down violence and a campy feel, it’s lighthearted and doesn’t take itself too seriously while keeping the stakes high.

Fun with friends or solo

With an interesting take on dungeon crawler and sides-scrolling games, Rotwood puts a spin on the classics with this bright and colorful entry. Everything from its 80s-inspired soundtrack to the character designs makes Rotwood, first and foremost, a fun game. Beyond that, challenging puzzles and powerful foes make it stimulating and exciting, from start to finish.
