What players say

Players call Daardoa a short, surreal walking sim with permadeath and no saving, making death punishing. They praise the eerie atmosphere and sound design but note the story is cryptic and the gameplay involves lots of walking between a few locations. Reviews split on whether it is a good entry point for newcomers to developer Vidas Games.
