The Lost Case Files

The Society kept a second cabinet. These are the files that were never meant to be reopened.

The Lost Case Files adds 35 new cases to DarkDice. Each one is adapted from a Lovecraft story and keeps the original's period, setting, characters and central horror, then gives your investigator room to act inside it.

A different kind of investigation

These cases are not played like the cases in the base game. Every one of them combines two systems:

• The hunt: a sealed door stands at the heart of every case. Behind it lies the truth. To open it, you must gather six key relics scattered through the investigation: torn book-leaves, shards of blue glass, medallions of a forgotten sect.

• The commitment: you can't chase every lead. Each case has groups of mutually exclusive choices. Question one witness and the other goes silent. Search one site and the other is lost. Guard one friend through the blackout and leave the other in the dark.

Together they turn every case into a question of which path to the door you will take, and what you will give up to get there. Each route turns up its relics in a different place and at a different cost, and brings different allies, enemies and evidence into the final chapter. No route locks you out: every path can still find its way to the door, or you can force it open, at a price.

What's inside

• 35 new cases: Celephaïs, The Silver Key, The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath, The Whisperer in Darkness, The Dreams in the Witch House, The Thing on the Doorstep, The Haunter of the Dark, The Lurking Fear, The Shunned House, The Music of Erich Zann, and many more.

• Characters who remember: Lovecraft's characters react to how you treat them. They can stand beside you in the final chapter or work against you.

• Deduction, then consequence: weigh what you found, judge who to trust, and decide what to expose, seal or destroy. Different evidence leads to different endings.

• Up to eight endings per case, from a clean victory to a narrow escape to something much worse.

• 70 new achievements.

• Full English and Traditional Chinese text, with Simplified Chinese also available.

Notification de contenu généré par IA

L'équipe de développement décrit l'utilisation de contenu généré par IA dans le jeu comme suit.

AI-assisted tools were used during the development of DarkDice in the following ways:

Code development — AI coding assistants helped write and refactor portions of the game's codebase.
Text editing — AI tools were used to proofread, polish, and tighten narrative and UI copy.
Localization & Editing — AI is used to assist with the translation, text expansion, polishing, and style adjustment of game text between English and Chinese (Traditional/Simplified).
Image generation — Some visual assets (case artwork, promotional images) were created using AI image-generation tools.
No content is generated in real time during gameplay — every case is a fixed, pre-authored story; nothing changes between playthroughs.
