Horror video game 2Dark looks disturbing & amazing

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

2Dark is a stealth adventure horror game directed by Frédérick Raynal, developed by Gloomywood and published by Bigben Interactive on Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, as well as digital versions.

The game was released in digital form March 10th, and physical versions March 17th.  

I haven't yet played the game (I'm not one for video games) but looking through the game's very provocative art (which you can peep below) this is a game, along with FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE GAME, I will be getting my hands on. And if a game can not only attract the attention of a dude who doesn't play video games, but make said dude want to play the game asap, then you know you're doing something right.

2 DARK follows a former detective named Mr. Smith travels to the town of Gloomywood to solve a mystery involving disappearing children. And, to me, looks like a mixture of HOUSE OF 1,000 CORPSES and SEVEN by way of Tim Burton.

Gameplay is intended to be simplistic and accessible to casual gamers. The player can pick up items by walking into them. Stealth will play a large role in the gameplay, and the player can use darkness to hide their location. Enemies can be alerted by sounds that the player makes. The player will need to rescue children, who will move slowly and be susceptible to danger.
