🎮 Game Overview

🎯 Core Concept

99 Nights in the Forest is a Roblox game made by Grandma's Favourite Games. In this game, players must survive 99 days in a forest, and defend against a wendigo-like aggressive creature while making sure their campfire is lit. Players also have to focus on rescuing four missing kids, defending themselves against cultists, as well as exploring the large forest for loot, guns, and other items.

Operation Hope was started to find a small aircraft in the Amazon rainforest that had crashed in May, where all the adults died. However, four children aged 13, 9, 4, and just 11 months survived the crash and were alive for 40 days in the jungle.
