8 itemsAbout the Game
Wilderdark is a survival horror exploration game where you find yourself on an unnatural island infected with a mysterious ectoparasitic organism which is corrupting the dinosaurs and plantlife. Sent in by the organisation you work for in search of immortality, you are tasked with documenting the island’s ecosystem, collecting samples and unraveling the fate of previously vanished expeditions - including one led by your own parents.
Explore and investigate
A crash landing on the island means starting with minimal resources and tools. Stealth is required to survive the island filled with danger, and piece together the truth through environmental storytelling, photographic documentation, and crafted tools. Careful use of resources is the only way to hide and survive the hunt of apex predators.
Ectoparasites
Much is unknown of their origin and their effects on organic life, including humans. One wrong move could mean the end or the start of something unimaginable.
Can you escape the fate that has fallen so many and live to tell a tale?
