Short description

Dead of Darkness is a 2D survival-horror action-adventure. Investigate a mysterious island and unravel its disturbing secret. You’ll have to face grotesque creatures, hurdle deadly traps, solve puzzles, and most importantly, survive.

About the game

In 1985 England, private investigator Miles Windham follows a lead on the mysterious death of his daughter that takes him to Velvet Island. But once he arrives on the island, he soon realizes that the residents are behaving strangely. In fact, there is a growing hostility towards the investigator that feels as though it is becoming stronger by the minute. It doesn't take long until the situation escalates and Miles finds himself in a struggle for his own survival.

Dead of Darkness is a survival-horror action-adventure with cosmic horror influences.

Key features

Complex, multi-layered narrative. Meet more than 15 characters over the course of the game - each with their own story that revolves around the terrible secrets of Velvet Island.

Challenging survival-horror. Resources are scarce, your inventory is limited, and danger lurks around every corner. Plan your routes carefully if you want to survive.

Intense hallucinations. Each enemy encounter takes a toll on your mental state. The lower your mental state, the stronger the hallucinations you will experience - some will even blur the distinction between reality and fiction.

Relentless enemies. 13 different enemies are hungry for your flesh, and some of them will stalk you relentlessly. Fight them, run from them, or use your wits to outsmart them.

Become a detective. Search your environment, inspect items and read documents in order to unlock clues. Use these clues to reveal hidden troves or unlock secret passageways.

About the game

Step into the shoes of Freudia Neuwahl, a cool and collected young woman on a mission to save her best friend from an Imperial witch hunt.

"Rosenkreuzstilette Freudenstachel" is the sequel to "Rosenkreuzstilette", a level-based 2D side scrolling action game for PC.

STORY

Thousands of years have passed since "magic" was lost to the people. Now there are but a few who even know of its existence. Those who possessed magical abilities were faced with persecution.

Several months have passed since Count Zeppelin's ill-fated rebellion against the Holy Empire and the Orthodox Church. Rebuilding the damage caused by Rosenkreuzstilette, the Pope issues a solemn decree: that all Magi are to be considered menaces to society and enemies of the state. Establishing his own strike force of magic-users loyal to the faith, Schwarzkreuz, the Pope and his followers set out to put an end to the last of the resistance.
Spiritia Rosenberg, the plucky young woman responsible for quashing the Count's uprising, is among the first to be captured during Schwarzkreuz's witch hunt. As Freudia Neuwahl, Spritia's lifelong friend, you must ensure the safety of the surviving members of Rosenkreuzstilette, put an end to Schwarzkreuz and the Pope's oppression of the Magi, and bring Spiritia home...
