About A Dark Forest

The world is dark and empty.

A Dark Forest is an incremental idle horror game about discovering the unknown within and without yourself.

Everything the darkness touches is yours.


Explore the world, gather resources and carve out a community of your own inside the dark forest.Remember… the Darkness never sleeps, and it doesn't like new challengers.

Savior or tyrant?

Ward off 11 abyssal entities. Will you spare or execute them?There will be consequences… do you dare experience all endings?

My good steward!

Control the faceless masses. Experience a strategic resource production chain mechanic and choose how you reign!Will you implement absolute rule, allow for limited autonomy and freewill, or establish secretive freemasonry?

Dear diary…

Experience a twisting narrative. Will you shape the world, or be shaped by it?Will you ever stop, or is your greed immeasurable?

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.

Rust price: why the cheap keys vanished, and when to buy

The Rust price has two answers: an official one that barely moves, and a reseller one that sat in single digits for 95 days and then disappeared. Our record shows both.

Planet Zoo 2 price: which edition, and when it gets cheaper

Planet Zoo 2 is out today. The Planet Zoo 2 price splits two ways, the cheap pre-order keys stopped existing three weeks ago, and the original got dearer as the sequel landed.
