About This Game

DARK IN LIGHT

A man falls asleep after working late and wakes up in a strange city overrun by monsters.

Survive with limited resources and explore the city by following clues hidden in the darkness.
Keep moving forward to return to the son who may still be waiting for you.

Explore a Collapsed City

The city is no longer a safe place.

Explore various locations including offices, gas stations, parks, and schools as you search for a way forward.

Weapons, survival items, documents, and clues about what happened to the city are hidden throughout the darkness.

Survive with Limited Resources

Use pistols, shotguns, rifles, and various melee weapons to fight against the monsters.

However, ammunition and healing items are limited.

Knowing when to fight, which weapon to use, and how to manage your remaining resources is essential for survival.

Each melee weapon has its own attack style and performance, and can be improved through use while requiring durability management.

Search the Darkness and Find Clues

Not every path is open from the beginning.

Explore your surroundings, examine items and documents, and solve puzzles and environmental gimmicks to gain access to new areas.

Records and messages scattered throughout the city provide clues about the protagonist’s journey and the world around him.

Fight to Survive

Monsters have different behaviors and attack patterns.

Watch their movements carefully and use firearms and melee weapons depending on the situation.

Damage certain parts of an enemy’s body to reduce their mobility, or use destructible objects and environmental elements to gain an advantage in combat.

• Pistols, shotguns, rifles, and various melee weapons

Exploration and Puzzles

DARK IN LIGHT is not only about combat. Exploration and puzzle-solving are also important parts of the experience.

Open locked doors, investigate your surroundings, and solve various environmental gimmicks as you continue through the city.

Sometimes, even a small document can contain an important clue needed to move forward.
