"Ich bin überrascht und enttäuscht zugleich: Through the Woods hat ein unglaublich spannendes Setting und eine durchaus ordentliche Rahmenhandlung, nutzt aber die gegebenen Bedingungen nur bedingt. Durch das sehr beschnittene Gameplay kommt in der ohnehin nur sehr kurzen Spielzeit immer mal wieder Langeweile auf und zieht die Handlung gefühlt unnötig in die Länge. Gerne hätte ich mir mehr Geheimnisse und mehr Details zu den Mythen rund um die Wälder gewünscht. Dafür stimmt die Atmosphäre und lässt mich endlich wieder das mulmige Gefühl in der Magengegend finden. Der an die Silent Hill-Reihe angelehnte Soundtrack lässt darüber hinaus sogar noch ein Stück Nostalgie mitschwingen, weshalb der Titel Fans von seichtem Psycho-Horror mit einer Brise Herzschmerz durchaus zu empfehlen ist."

About

Through the Galaxy is a spacefaring RPG that balances resource gathering and tactical combat. You pilot a customizable ship across procedurally generated planets, scavenging materials to upgrade armor and weapons. Each session involves darting between asteroid fields and mining colonies while fending off waves of enemies. The gameplay alternates between frenetic bullet-dodging combat and slower moments of base building, letting you tailor your ship’s loadout between runs. The game’s charm comes from its bright 2D cartoon visuals and flexible pacing. Runs typically last 20, 30 minutes, making it easy to jump in and out. While it shares DNA with bullet-hell shooters and base-building simulators, it avoids leaning too hard into either genre. Early access players noted the satisfying loop of improving your ship, though some wished for more variety in mission types. It’s a low-stakes but addictive blend of strategy and action.
