Get Fear of Dark for PC

Fear of Dark is a multiplayer game set in a mysterious forest where people have been disappearing at night. You can play as one of the monster hunters searching for the creature, or as the monster trying to kill them.

Hunt the monster

As a hunter, you work in a team of 2–4 people to catch the elusive creature. Your success depends on teamwork, mutual assistance, cohesion and individual skill. Set traps, including electro-traps, use flesh to lure the monster, and try to draw it into an ambush. Watch for traps and ambushes the monster may have prepared, and use direct light to sanctify areas of the forest. Help teammates in danger while protecting yourself.

Play as the monster

As the monster, use your abilities to evade hunters and attack them. You can merge with the forest and summon its nocturnal inhabitants to help you. Break the generator that narrows the area where you can be found, separate the hunters to stop them helping one another, and use your body’s abilities to hide your location or escape ambushes. Keep your hunger level up, watch for traps, and avoid direct light, which temporarily changes your body’s pigmentation and makes you visible. The forest is your element, but hunters can use light to make it harder for you to hide.

Game modes

You can play alone or in multiplayer with friends or players matched with you, either as a hunter or as the monster.
