About The Darkest Island
The Darkest Island is a first-person psychological horror game with moments of action. After an air cargo flight between countries across the Atlantic Ocean crashes on an inhabited island, you survive but cannot find your team among the wreckage. You use a compass to search for them and look for first aid in villages.
Survival and exploration
You solve problems in different ways as you explore the island. The gameplay takes priority, while the story leaves the connections between events uncertain. Torches require flammable liquid to stay lit.
Atmosphere
The game uses high-quality graphics and audio to create a tense atmosphere. Fear can build as you walk through the island, rather than relying only on cheap scares.
