SMOKEWOOD VIDEO GAME

The Untamed Frontier Awaits

Step into the mysterious wilderness of Smokewood, where survival meets morality and every choice shapes your legend. Set in the late 1870s frontier, this isn't just another western game—it's your story, written in the dust and blood of an unforgiving land.

Will you be a peaceful homesteader or a ruthless outlaw? A protector of nature or an industrial baron? The choice is yours, and the frontier remembers.

Why Smokewood?

Your Choices Actually Matter

Most games tell you who to be. Smokewood remembers who you've become. No quest markers. No morality meters. Just you, the wilderness, and the consequences of your actions rippling through a living world.

Four Unique Stories, One Shared World

Begin your journey as one of four distinct characters, each with their own path, skills, and moral dilemmas. From a drifting homesteader to a lone gunslinger, from an indigenous guide to a lost survivor—every story converges in Smokewood, but how you navigate it is entirely up to you.

A Morality System Like No Other

Forget good vs. evil. Smokewood features a revolutionary four-axis morality system that tracks how you interact with the land, people, law, and community. Are you a lawful naturalist? A violent industrialist? A peaceful nomad? There are 64 unique paths, and none of them are "right."

Survival Meets Strategy

Hunt, fish, farm, ranch, craft, and build your homestead. But beware—every action has consequences. Overhunt and the ecosystem collapses. Break the law and bounties follow. Industrialize and the land suffers. The frontier is alive, and it reacts to you.

Multiple Endings, Infinite Replayability

Your choices lead to dramatically different endings. Become a legendary keeper of the land, a feared outlaw king, a wandering ghost, or a respected pioneer. With 64 archetypes and countless combinations, no two playthroughs are the same.
