About the Game

Far From The Darkness is a multiplayer strategy and betrayal game for 4 to 12 players.

You are part of a squad of soldiers among whom werewolves are hiding. During the night, the soldiers must complete missions while surviving the werewolves, who can transform once and kill a victim during the night.

  • If the missions are not completed within the time limit, the squad will have to survive a blood night. During this phase, the werewolves can transform again and continue the massacre.

  • If the missions are completed within the time limit, the day breaks, and the squad votes to eliminate the most suspicious person.

Of course, the werewolves are not invincible, and the squad is not defenseless. All players (soldiers and wolves) have roles that grant them unique abilities. New roles will be added regularly.

Additional Information:

  • Gameplay: Unlike the board game, you must move around in a 3D environment. Some roles grant the ability to shoot various projectiles; poor aim can seriously hinder your team.

  • Communication: The game features a proximity chat system to communicate with other players.

  • Atmosphere: During the night phases, players move through dark areas, lit only by their flashlights. In this terrifying darkness, danger can come out of nowhere! A word of advice, try to find batteries to stay far from the darkness.

  • Progression: Every action during a match earns you experience. Each level unlocks in-game cosmetics. Your stats are also saved.
