5 itemsAbout the Game
I have seen the dark universe yawning
Where the black planets roll without aim,
Where they roll in their horror unheeded,
Without knowledge or lustre or name.
Nemesis
Gamebook: The Haunter Of The Dark
Beyond Games and Audiobooks
Robert Blake, the main human character of The Haunter Of The Dark, died under unexplained circumstances.
Do you have the nerve to play his role as written down by the master Lovecraft?
Gamebook: The Haunter Of The Dark is an audio-active horror where less is more.
You'll see less, hear (fear) more.
Images will appear and disappear similar to the flashes of a night storm.
Music and sounds will indicate you the right direction in the darkness.
Use sound orientation and explore the winding streets of the haunted settlement to find and then escape the cursed temple.
Well, adventurer, you have a small chance called... hope.
In detail:
+ Steam Achievements.
+ Two audio-active modes: Story and Explore.
Story mode: enhance your listening experience with various intuitive actions. Know when to open doors, chests or sometimes even dodge a certain death…
Explore mode: Let the music guide you through the dark, learn to move effortlessly without the help of your sight. We strongly recommend the use of headphones to find the right direction.
+ Cosmology & horror ambience.
+ 3D audio environment experience.
+ Intuitive controls.
Curtain-up!
