Loved this game! Evocative design and storytelling that synergize well. It's part rudimentary settlement builder, part crafting, part roguelike exploration. And the plot unfolds in such a surprising, yet intriguing way. I obsessively played it through and had a great time!
Unique experience, awesome.

A Dark Room ® was very enjoyable. I went in blind, and did not expect the [spoiler]transition to psychological(?) horror-adjacent territory[/spoiler].
fun, mysterious, and has a lot of atmosphere for a completely text-based game
I wasn't sure whether I liked the changes in story compared to the browser version at first, but liked the idea of having two paths to play through. That said, I found the "alternative" path to be underwhelming, with only a few relatively minor differences. I guess I'm saying I would've liked to see more!
Such an amazing game! So fun and awesome! The only problem is when looting, when I go to click on the box to pick up an object, it often just selects Bolas instead. It is because I click the box too soon I think, but I would prefer gameplay if this didn't happen.
good story, got me invested
Amazing.
surprisingly comfortable for the type of game that it is and the story it tells. maybe it's nostalgia for me, because i played it initially in my browser many many years ago. still. very good game. totally worth it.
