Finished the game, and I just have one word for it: AMAZING!
Heck, for a NSFW game, I'm so invested in the story, anxious to learn more about the lore in the second act!
Excuse me, how do I open the door in this area?
Bahasa Indonesia:
Hope that you will release your awesome games on Steam in the near future. Good luck with development.
BUG 好严重啊，已经遇到不能攻击和绑定装备下不掉两个恶性bug了
Really fun and hot game but could be quite challenging. I like the art style and gameplay, but survival mechanism is a bit tough to progress hah. Still it’s a great game!
Настолько сильно захотелось купить игру, что завёл виртуальную карту для покупки игры, каюсь, играл в пиратку, но теперь оффициально купил, увы, но вышло дороговато, ни о чём не жалею)))
i love this game
Looking forward to the second chapter of this game
Such a unique RPG gameplay style! Feels like it'd be perfect with some roguelike levels similar to Binding of Isaac imo. :)
Is there a gallery or something that can check any cg at any time and where the snake nest is? why not found
The gallery is unlocked when you complete the game.
The serpent's lair is in the swamplands location.
Okay, but where is it in the swamp? I think I've seen all the places. Is it in the house after the arrest
Yes, that's the serpent's lair. Look around in that whole interior area and you'll find a schematic for 'Flimsy Shears'. Make them and you can access new areas of the Swamplands.
Okay, thank you very much for your answer
Does anyone know what to do for The Fortress quest? I know I need to "explore the swamplands" but I just cannot find anything there. I've picked the serpantfolk clean, killed everyone in the lair, wiped the map up and down, but I have found nothing. And please no vague hints, i'm just looking for a point blank answer. Thank you <3
In the serpentfolk's lair is a schematic for 'flimsy shears'. You need to make them, so you can cut through barriers to access other parts of the swamp.
Is there another area other than the one to the right of the second screen? Thats the only sheer wall i'd been able to find, and I feel totally blind haha. Also, thank you for the reply! I absolutely *adored* Grove, and I have been super duper loving Prowler! It's genuinely got some pretty addicting gameplay with it's gathering and crafting mechanics. Not to mention the gorgeous art!
There's also an area to the LEFT of the second screen. That's the way you want to go. You'll need to do a bit of jumping to make your way around.
Thanks for the kind words, too. Hope you enjoy what remains of Prowler!
Ahhhh thank you! I really was super blind hehe. Probably too distracted by how cute Kivu is any time I look over to the left. Thank you so much for the help. I cannot wait to see the rest of what Act 1 has in store!!
Thank you for the wonderful game!
I'm trying to revise the Japanese translation, but is there anywhere I can find information about the worldbuilding and proper nouns?
Thank you for playing!
We don't really have a specific place full of game information... but if you have a specific question, I can try and answer it for you. Or you join our Discord server and ask there!
Is the name of this world—or perhaps this region—'Wild'?
From what I understand, it's governed by the 'Wild Pact,' an agreement that maintains peace between the various species (with some exceptions, like the Reavers). Is that correct?
If I have more questions, I’ll ask on Discord.
The name of the region that the game takes place in is called "The Wilds".
And that is correct about the "Wild Pact", yes!
Thank you !
totally worth the price fr
still tryin to figure out how to get all the accessories since im missing some
An amazing game to and I very much look forward to seeing act 2.
Though I am stuck trying to find the elusive fish 2 not sure if I am just unlucky finding the tile that has the caves in it or am just blind
And just after posting this I found it, yeah I was just that unlucky :P
Thanks a lot for playing, and for wanting to see the game through to completion!
This happened while I was talking to the fisher guy in the water cave
What should I do to find the lider of the serpentes of the swamps?
A schematic for 'flimsy shears' can be found in the serpent's lair. Use them to cut through latex barriers and you'll find the leader.
What should I find in the swamps?
The lair of the serpentfolk, a schematic for flimsy shears to cut through blocked paths
Im stuck, I may be dumb but I cant find Kowolo's place
Travel there from the selection menu when leaving your camp!
I’d like to subscribe to SubscribeStar, but I’m unable to pay by credit card due to an unknown error. Are there any alternative available?
Afraid not, sorry... but thank you for your generosity regardless!
Does the Spiker tonic do anything? I have used it a few times and I have never seen even one spine regrow even when staying around for a long time. Kind of a bummer when it comes up to lose 40% stamina for seemingly no gain.
An easy 5 stars!
It's a wonderful game! Not only were the lewds NICE, but the story had me captivated! Some may say even bound and restrained! The writing was so well mixed with the actual lewdness, me thinks, I ended up with so many questions... kinks... and theories! I almost 100% it, only couldn't quite figure out the cooking system... (and kind of gave up on it very quickly) because i'm a little dumb, but it was defo, interesting to try unlocking everything! including the accesories for Kivuli! The love and effort definetly shows! Can't wait for the next Act! Keep it up GROVE Team!
Thank you so very much for the kind review!
this is exactly what i needed
I can't wait to play ACT 2
Thank you!
The cg of the patriarch tied up in the room at the beginning is great too, but it doesn't seem to have been included at the end of the game?
Sorry about that. We're going to try and get better about including 'cutscene lewds' in our galleries in the future.
Just finished the game and absolutely loved it! I’m already looking forward to Act 2. The story is engaging without relying too heavily on NSFW content, which I really appreciate. The gameplay is fun, and the more I played, the more I could feel the love and effort poured into it. There are a few small bugs, but nothing that really bothered me. The only part I didn't enjoy as much was the box-pushing puzzle — the movement felt a bit glitchy at times. Still, thank you for creating such a great game! Voted 5 Star!
Thank you very much for the kind review and the very positive rating, we really do appreciate that! We definitely put a lot of effort into Prowler and it's very validating to have people calling that out :)
It'll be a while before Act 2 is released, but thanks for the interest! Hope we won't disappoint when the time finally comes!
so I love this game its fun and exciting but I found a few things that are a little odd but not game braking
first sweet berry jam is labeled wrong in the recipe book as just berry jam witch is kind of confusing but on the same note it also doesn't say its a ingredient which makes it more confusing
on the same vine stewed honey truffles recipe says just normal swamp truffles when you need cooked swamp truffles so also a little confusing
but yeah that's really all like i said nothing game braking just a little confusing but beyond that i had a lot of fun still missing one recipe and one accessory tho got to keep hunting for that stuff as well as fish
also sorry no periods I'm not the best with grammar
how do i throw item that i dom't want away?
Utility, Item Burner.
Hello, is this the full Version of the whole game or just chapter 1?
It's just chapter 1, though it's a good chunk of content still, should last you 5+ hours!
The game is great, but I encountered a bug(?) in my playthrough once I reach the swamp, after the trapper scenes, my game started to get fps drops like crazy, I tried to reinstall but that didn't work.
What did work is changing the option for the sprite to either be hidden or shown, changing from one to the other ends up making the framerate back to normal(at least that is what worked for me), and I'm making this comment just in case somebody has the same frame drop issue, just tinker with your portrait option until the frames go back to normal.
That being said this has been one of the rpgs I played so far, both with the spritework, voice acting, and the sound effects.
*video is for the example of the bug
Thank you for the very kind words, and also for the bit of troubleshooting you did. This might indeed be able to help us squeeze a bit more performance out of the game.
HIIII, THE GAME IS SUPER GOOD BUT I JUST STARTED AND ITS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND SOME THINGS FOR ME 🥹 BUT I LOVE ITT.
I have A question, how much does it takes to finish the game?
Do I get to see the old chief or the other parts of the clan in the future?
(I'm just in the beginning so idk if I will, but I'm scared that all my old clan will be died 💔)
hey so my version of prowler i buyed is empty. like there no files inside anymore outside of image... help?
all are empty outside of www which have more empty foulder, the only not empty have images but the game itself is just gone.
If you're still having problems, please try redownloading the game. Might be that your download was incomplete, interrupted, or corrupted.
If this issue persists, let us know what version of the game you were trying to download and we can investigate further.
re-installed, but i lost my old progression. Given what i seen from other people, there don't seem to be any tool to force progression or give resources, so i'm gonna have to redo it all manually. Still no idea what happened, i'm gonna blame my pc, prob whiped the files for some reason...
Hello, do you a list of all accessories to unlock please
我要怎么救他？
Interact with the green highlighted machine.
Another box will appear. Push it to block the lasers, and use the control panel to deactivate two more.
哦，搜嘎，谢谢！
Henloo there
When Act 2? :D
The Boss fight is so brutal, wish there was a save right before the actual fight. I'm so close but so far
Hi there, loving the game so far, tho im not sure where to put this or how to bring it to your attention but i ran into a bug just after the first losing scene within the savanna, where my move speed has been locked to the super slow one, even after losing again then being returned back to camp. I even went back, lost twice again to be returned back to camp and my speed is still locked :( what makes it even worse is i didn't think the first time around and i overwrote my current save and kinda ruined it… I lost a lot of progress… is there any kind of quick fix? Or do I have to start again?
