The only way to truly avoid the wolf is to find empty totem pedestals and transform yourself into a totem pole to hide. He’s significantly faster and smarter than other enemies, and is all too happy to continually pursue you, even when you’re running away. Once you reach a certain point in a given area, he’ll begin prowling, and evading him was easily one of my favorite parts of the game. LeFaba’s other minion is her familiar, the big bad wolf. You’ll also need to watch your stamina, as the evasion move takes a pretty hearty chunk of energy to execute. Thankfully, Scarlet does have an evasion move you can activate by hitting the spacebar, but you’ll need to time it carefully. Dodos, meanwhile, prowl the forest without hiding, and you’ll need to be careful to get around them. If you get hit, you’ll either lose a heart, or you could end up poisoned. The flying monkeys love to pop out of the forest near the top of the screen to shoot darts at poor Scarlet. Scarlet has five hearts, and LeFaba’s henchmen are all too happy to deplete them. Which is a bad idea, because they can and will hurt you. Specifically, dodos wearing armor, which is so cute I almost can’t take them seriously.
There are the obligatory flying monkeys, as well as, of all things, dodos. The other obstacle you’ll need to overcome are LeFaba’s dastardly minions. He’ll Huff and He’ll Puff, and Claw Your Face Off And, of course, like any good puzzle game, some of the puzzles were deceptively simple, designed to make you overthink, and I felt delightfully dumb after nearly having a rage-stroke over not finding the solution. There’s a particular puzzle involving wires and electricity, and honestly, the solution to it still doesn’t make any sense. Some of the puzzles are… esoteric, to say the least. Some puzzles are pretty straightforward: collect the pieces to repair a machine and then assemble it, or find clues for the combination to a locked box. Each puzzle is incredibly unique, and the vast majority of them are challenging. Littered along your path are obstacles in the form of puzzles and LeFaba’s minions. You can hold down the shift key in order to get her to run, but you’ll need to keep an eye on the stamina bar in the upper left exhaust your stamina, and you’ll be forced to slow down until Scarlet recovers.
You can stroll leisurely around, though Scarlet moves admittedly slowly just walking. Exploration is 2D, letting you move left and right, and it works really well for the game. Each area contains something (or someone) that should allow you to make it further through the Wicked Wood with each attempt. The goal is to find a way to thwart LeFaba and be able to make your way successfully through the eponymous Wicked Wood. At the start of each (repeated) day, you’ll be able to explore a new area of Glome. Scarlet Hood revolves around exploration. It’s up to you to guide her through trials and tribulations to finally make it through the day alive.

Unfortunately, she’s cursed to relive the same day over and over until she can figure out how to thwart the wicked witch LeFaba (if you get the reference, we are already friends). Since Scarlet Hood is such a story-heavy game, I don’t want to give away too much, but I can tell you this: Once Scarlet wakes up, she finds the remains of the Red Witch, and finds herself taking up the mantle.

When she wakes up, she finds herself in a strange world full of magic and fairytale creatures. On their way home, the weather turns nasty, and before she can find safety, poor Scarlet is sucked up by a tornado.
The game begins with the titular character Scarlet and her merry band heading to Nashville in search of their big break. A puzzle-solving adventure game, Scarlet Hood and the Wicked Wood takes players on a journey through the magical land of Glome. Enter Scarlet Hood and the Wicked Wood, a mashup of Little Red Riding Hood and The Wizard of Oz, developed by Devespresso Games. They remind me of being a kid, and there’s just something so wonderfully nostalgic about them.
Whether of the horrifying, traumatizing Brothers Grimm variety, or the watered down Disney versions. I’ve always been a huge fan of fairy tales.
