Inside the Dark Room
Some of you might remember reading about a minimalist text adventure a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, Candy Box, that’s the one. Well turns out the success of the initial game sparked the idea for another great adventure and this time is bigger and better. World, meet A Dark Room.
As the name suggests, players start sitting alone in a dark room when they come across a stranger. The two bond over their need for shelter and warmth and thus begins our journey into the unknown. This chance meeting grows into an epic quest for survival which sees the formation of a thriving village and an intricate economy that will make Candy Box look like child’s play.
However, it isn’t all village simulator mumbo jumbo, as you need to send daring villagers equipped with weapons and armour into the mysterious forest. For, deep within that forest, there are unkown riches (mainly because I haven’t found them and I don’t want this to be an epic waste of time) guarded by a mighty force of beasts and bandits.
I would prefer not to divulge more details about the game because the less you, know the better your experience. What I say, A Dark Room is an intense adventure that takes you on a Dark quest for survival.
