How it feels
A tense, methodical journey through a desolate world where each step risks death and every lesson is earned through trial and error.

What players say
Players who enjoy the world of A Dark Room find a tougher, text-based prequel focused on expedition and combat. A scroll-down bug can ruin runs, and opinions split sharply between those who love the bleak atmosphere and one reviewer who calls it poorly designed.
