Purify the Last Forest

Bolt through a decaying forest as a deer, leaping chasms and dashing past rot to rescue every fawn you can before time runs out.

The deer never stops moving. That's the first thing you'll notice in Purify the Last Forest—there's no brake, no reverse, just forward momentum through a world that's falling apart. You control the jump and the dash, but the pace is set. Platform gaps appear quickly, and the dash is your best friend when you need to clear a wide chasm or catch up to a fawn that's just out of reach. Each stretch feels like a desperate sprint against decay, and the art sells it: muted greens fading to gray, bark peeling off trees as you pass. The fawns are the real objective. They're scattered along the route, sometimes in clusters, sometimes tucked behind a risky jump. Grabbing them isn't automatic—you have to run through them, and if you miss one, it's gone. I kept restarting the second section just to nail the three-fawn pickup on the falling log. That's the hook: it's simple to pick up and play, but the timing of dash vs. jump gets your palms sweaty. The controls are responsive enough that a last-second dash can save a fawn, but too much dash at the wrong time sends you off the edge. Purify the Last Forest isn't long, but it doesn't need to be. It's the kind of game you'll replay because you know you can do better—save more fawns, finish faster, or just see the forest restored a little more. The ending screen showing your fawn count is a quiet motivator. If you like auto-runners with a purpose, this one scratches that itch without overcomplicating things.

Your deer will automatically move forward. Jump from platform to platform and dash to speed up. Save as many fawns as you can pick up and race to the end!

• Tap dash right before a long gap, not mid-air—it carries you farther. • Fawns often sit just off the main path; a quick jump can snag them without losing speed. • Learn the jump arc early. Double jumps aren't a thing here, so time each hop precisely. • Don't spam dash on narrow platforms. It's easy to overshoot into a pit. • If you miss a fawn, don't double back—the auto-scroll will punish you worse than the loss. • Watch for visual cues: cracked platforms crumble, so aim for the solid-looking ones.
