About A Dark Room ®

awake. head throbbing. vision blurry. the voices say to survive.

A Dark Room is an innovative text-based adventure that harkens back to the magic of Zork, adding a modern spin on a classic genre and time in gaming.

It challenges the player’s perceptions, actions and imagination. Visually clean, A Dark Room presents text and cues with limited visual flourishes, but the experience that takes shape is full of depth and environmental storytelling. Audio is also important, portraying a dark world that the player can only imagine.

It is a game that draws players in, allowing them to perceive the intriguing world in their own way. What starts as a dark room with limited interactive options evolves into a complex story and resource management challenge.

Adapted especially for steam, you can play with physical controls or the touch screen; exclusive to this version of the game is an enhanced user interface, modding capabilities, and additional developer commentary.

A Dark Room is an experience, and a story, unlike any other.

Love this game, beat it a handful of times on my phone before buying the steam version. Simplistic in its graphics and gameplay, but tells one hell of a story! I feel like this is one of the few games that I can replay over and over without getting tired of it.

Eh. Gracefully short but not particularly remarkable in any way. Works praxeologically but I just don't find what it's trying to do very interesting. Not a bad experience per se, it invokes the mix of spooky and adventurous that it sets out to, but that's about it. Somehow overstays its 2 hour welcome (at least to me), as the last bit involved a bit of tedious repetition. Probably remarkable for clicker game fans, but that's not a bar that I care about.

Loved this game! Evocative design and storytelling that synergize well. It's part rudimentary settlement builder, part crafting, part roguelike exploration. And the plot unfolds in such a surprising, yet intriguing way. I obsessively played it through and had a great time!

this game is awesome <3 i much prefer the ui on the web version, but the pacing on this is definitely better. very nice little plot, fun exploration and combat; just very very clean and well done overall
