The Arenas
Each arena is a readable combat floor set inside its own world: a quarry, a sea cliff, a mountain meadow, a mushroom wood, a river market, a summit observatory and a winter grove, around the cedar court where it all started.
The Rascals
Five melee bruisers, five ranged casters and five healers, each with a toon skin and a detailed skin, a resource of its own and fifteen active abilities. Pick one to see it move and read its whole kit.
Fire, water and a lot of claws
Footage from the game itself: the Emberscale showcase firing its five signature moves at training rivals, and solo kit matches where rascals trade real abilities under the server's rules.
The game around it
A carved-wood interface from the title screen to the ladder: hero select, a full combat HUD, results, and online Quick Play, Ranked and custom Lobbies with match history.
Find your rascal.
Follow the progress and hear when there is something ready for you to play.
Questions
What am I signing up for?
Get Forest Rascals development news and future playtest invitations. Signing up records your interest. It does not create an app account, reserve access, or take a payment.
When can I try it?
The game is in development. This page shows what is taking shape. We will share availability and testing opportunities when they are confirmed.
Will I get updates about other apps?
This signup is only for Forest Rascals. You can leave this list at any time using the link in an update or the management link shown after a new signup.
Install on a Mac
Five steps
- Ask the developer for the Forest Rascals installer for Mac (a file ending in .dmg). You need a Mac with an Apple chip (M1 or newer), macOS 14 or newer and about 4 GB of free space.
- Double-click the file. In the window that opens, drag Forest Rascals onto Applications, then eject the installer.
- The first launch needs one extra step because the game is not notarized yet: open Applications, right-click Forest Rascals, choose Open, then Open again.
- If macOS still refuses, open System Settings, then Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway next to Forest Rascals, then launch it again.
- The title screen appears. Choose Play practice to try any rascal, or Play match for a solo three-on-three against computer rascals.
The full guide, including online play and a note on Windows, is in the project at docs/guides/install-and-play.md. Windows builds are not available yet.
