Trees Hate You
Trees Hate You is a game set in a forest while you're on a picnic. At first glance, it seems like a simple stroll, but unexpected challenges and dangers will appear, making the picnic more lively and exciting.
Discover the mischievous nature of the forest
The mischievous nature of the forest quickly becomes apparent as you begin to explore. The surrounding environment seems to come alive, almost as if it's against you. Trees don't just stand silently behind you; they can suddenly fall, turning a stroll into a desperate race for survival. The path ahead is also full of uncertainties. Seemingly helpful road signs can be misleading, putting you in danger instead of guiding you in the right direction.
From the very beginning of the game, the mischievous nature of the forest is clearly revealed. Everything around you seems to come alive and is ready to fight against you. While traveling, trees don't just stand still; they might suddenly turn red, or seemingly helpful road signs can be misleading and put you in danger by pointing the wrong way.
This unpredictable feeling excites the player
Every step demands focus, and every new task tests your reflexes and judgment. It's not simply about jumping and running; it's about learning to anticipate the unexpected and adapting quickly.
An astonishing contrast
What amazes players is the stark contrast between the seemingly silent and tranquil forest and its vibrant, ever-present nature, fraught with unexpected dangers. It feels peaceful… until it really, really isn’t. That tension creates an experience I didn’t expect to enjoy as much as I did. If anything, this game taught me not to trust appearances—especially when even the trees seem out to get you.

Tips
From my experience, timing your jumps is everything—especially when you’re dealing with falling trees that show no mercy. It’s tempting to rush through, but I learned the hard way that “safe-looking” paths can be total traps. Honestly, you’ll probably fail a lot, and that’s okay. Restarting over and over is just part of the process—and surprisingly, part of the fun too.
