Dead of Darkness is a 2D survival-horror action-adventure. Investigate a missing persons case on Velvet Island and unravel its disturbing secret. You’ll have to face grotesque creatures, hurdle deadly traps, solve puzzles, and most importantly, survive.
Dead of Darkness channels classic survival horror yet carves its own identity with a twisty story and sharp design. Combat and puzzles are serviceable but dragged down by cheap insta-kills.
While it takes its time getting into the meat of things, despite this being more of a 16-bit throwback affair, it’s one of the better horror games out in the eShop

Dead of Darkness's memorable characters, satisfying narrative twists, and thoughtful design elements left a strong impression.
Dead of Darkness is a creepy and challenging survival horror title with an interesting story that makes you want to solve the mystery of what is happening here.
