You run and jump with precise, cat-like agility through a dark, foreboding world, always wary of unseen dangers.

What players say
Players are split on A Walk in the Dark: some praise its art and challenge, but many blame floaty controls, oversized hitboxes, and unreliable wall climbing for unfair deaths. The game is short to complete, but later levels feel like repetitive filler rather than creative design.
