Now available on Linux!



I finally have a Linux build and everything seems to be working!

This should work for all Linux distros that Steam supports. If you run into any problems, please let me know either in the discussion forums or by email: dan@ruscoe.org

Thank you, and I hope you enjoy your visit!

Introducing the Ancient Egypt exhibit!

Happy Friday! I'm really excited to say Dark Hill Museum of Death has received its first major update. There's now an Ancient Egypt exhibit to explore!



I've also cleaned up a few graphical issues and added a fun little funeral diorama to the Burial and Cremation exhibit. Ever see those little mechanical dioramas that take a coin or token and play out a little animated scene? It's just like that, except you don't need a coin.

One other announcement - I'm going to be releasing a Linux version soon. I just need to do some testing and then I'll get it out there ASAP. My Linux machine is running Pop!_OS, which is based on the ever-popular Ubuntu, so I'm 90% confident a Linux build that works for me will work for a lot of people. I'll have an email address for feedback in the next update just in case it doesn't.

Thank you all for playing Dark Hill. Seeing the reviews and people enjoying my weird little game means a lot to me.

“If this game has one thing going for it, it is its uniqueness and that is something I will always admire when it comes to indie games.”
Dead Entertainment

“Dark Hill Museum of Death is a wonderful mini experience for a cheap price. It might miss the mark with some of its puzzles, but this is a game you’ll be glad you tried.”

About This Game

Dark Hill Museum of Death is a journey through a virtual museum where uniquely themed exhibits are unlocked by solving puzzles. Never opened to the public, the museum's secrets are yours to discover.

  • Experience the atmosphere of six uniquely themed exhibits.
  • Solve puzzles of varying difficulty. Stuck on a puzzle? Go explore and come back to it!
  • Learn the history of death through the ages.
  • Admire real death-themed artwork from different cultures and time periods.



Monarchs, prisoners, deserters, and witches all have one thing in common - the occasional early demise at the hands of an executioner.

Learn about execution methods from the middle ages to the 20th century then escape this exhibit unscathed.



Spanish conquistadors wrote of their horror upon first witnessing Aztec sacrifices. You won't see anything quite so gruesome here, but you can see some artistic depictions inside the museum's Aztec-themed pyramid.



Keep your head down while exploring this recreation of a World War II trench and you'll find your way to the dugout.

Check out the collection of war posters and listen to real war-era radio broadcasts while you're there.



Take a stroll through the museum's own mini-graveyard and enjoy the atmosphere of a starry night among the graves.

Try out the interactive cremation exhibit, but don't let the dust get in your eyes.



Do you know who Pesta The Plague Hag is? You will.

Planning your visit


  • You should expect to spend around an hour at the museum.
  • You'll likely complete your tour in one visit, but you can leave and pick up where you left off at any time. No hand stamp required.
  • There are no jump-scares in the museum. It's a little creepy, but nothing will pop up and scare you.
  • The museum contains artwork depicting death, but nothing excessively graphic.
