Dark Fall

Dark Fall is a horror-adventure game in which you explore an abandoned train station and hotel, investigate their history and solve puzzles while an invisible ghost presence makes itself known through calls, footsteps and disembodied voices. You travel to Dowerton to help your brother, an architect redeveloping the station and hotel, after he leaves a frightened, cryptic message about a disappearance with strange whispers in the background. As you investigate, you discover that you are not alone.

The disappearances

Many decades ago, Dowerton’s train station and nearby Station Hotel were busy places for travellers. On the night of April 29th, 1947, the hotel’s guests and staff vanished without trace. The abandoned buildings conceal a history of disappearances, mystery and hauntings.

Investigate Dowerton

You explore the hotel and station alone at night, using detective skills to find secret places and uncover their history. Ghost-hunting gadgets let you see into the past and hear the dead, while high-tech surveillance equipment helps you watch supernatural activity. You can also research local ghost stories and communicate with ghosts through a Ouijaboard.

Puzzles and discoveries

The investigation involves solving puzzles and enigmas, and deciphering an ancient, long-forgotten language. The story is non-linear and written by Jonathan Boakes, author of The Lost Crown. The setting is a fully realised 3D World War 2-era location, with a cast of actors and sound that bring its haunting presence to life.
