Evaluation

Beacon Pines launched on September 22, 2022 as a complete, self-contained narrative adventure. Both DLC items (an artbook and original soundtrack) shipped on release day, meaning there was never any post-launch content campaign. At the game's one-year anniversary on September 22, 2023, developer Hiding Spot stated directly: "While further updates to the game aren't likely in the near-term, we still have some fun announcements for Beacon Pines fans coming up." This is a clear signal that no meaningful content updates were planned for the game itself. On June 11, 2026, Hiding Spot announced a brand-new game called Wicked Delights — explicitly framed as coming "from the creators of Beacon Pines" and as the studio's next project. This confirms the team has moved on to a new title rather than continuing development on Beacon Pines. The game launched as a complete story-driven experience, received no post-launch content updates, and the developer has since shifted focus entirely to a new project. Beacon Pines is a finished product.

About this game

Beacon Pines is a cute and creepy adventure set within a mysterious book. You play as both the reader of the book and its main character, Luka.

Something strange is happening at the old warehouse, and Luka and his friends seem to be the only ones taking notice. Sneak out late, make new friends, uncover hidden truths, and collect words that will change the course of fate!

While helping Luka investigate the strange goings-on in Beacon Pines, you’ll collect special golden charms, each with a word engraved on it. These charms can be used at certain turning points in the story to fill in a blank word and drastically change everything that follows.

As the book's reader, you’ll navigate the story’s turning points using The Chronicle: an interactive story tree that branches and grows along with your choices. Exploring one set of events can unlock new charms to use on another branch, leading you to jump back and forth between entirely different versions of the story in order to unravel the mysteries at the heart of Beacon Pines.
