About
You are trapped in an endless loop. At first glance, the house looks normal... but your only weapons against the distorting reality are your attention to detail and an ordinary light switch.
Switch the Darkness is a short psychological horror game about hunting for anomalies.
Memorize. Scrutinize the interior of the house. Every detail matters: the paintings on the walls, the furniture arrangement, the ambient sounds.
Find anomalies. Did that painting change? Is the houseplant breathing? Was that vase even there before?
Act.
Everything is normal? -> Go to bed and sleep.
Notice something strange? -> Flip the switch.
Remember: Just one mistake, and the loop starts all over again.
Your focus is your weapon: You are in control of the situation. Use your observation skills to weed out anomalies and pave your way to the next night.
Unpredictable anomalies: From a barely shifted chair to an unseen presence. No two cycles are exactly alike.
Oppressive atmosphere: No combat, no inventory. Just you, escalating paranoia, and a flashlight in the pitch black.
Short, but nerve-wracking: A concentrated dose of paranoia lasting 15–60 minutes. The perfect experience to test your nerves for an evening.
The darkness is already watching you. Don't let it take you.

Fantastic game! The sheer number of anomalies is crazy, and they can be really tricky to notice. The random generation is a great touch that keeps you on your toes. Performance-wise, it's perfectly optimized. No stutters, no lag at all. The devs did a killer job! But man, the ending really got to me. No spoilers, but it completely destroyed me.

The rules are simple, but the game is meaningful. I love the balance between the frightening characters and the anomalies that challenge my attention. I was also surprised by the ending. I highly recommend it!
还行吧 就是有点短
Typical game about anomalies. You will like it if you are into that kind of stuff. Levels being cleared quite fast, so if you made a mistake you can quicklly get back.
かなり難易度の高い異変と簡単な異変が混ざっているのと、 エネミーによる強制チェイスのアクションがあり、 両方のプレイヤースキル、モニターの大きさが求められるゲームでした。 明るさ調整などが設定にないけど、 懐中電灯の明かりの反射で見えなかったりで環境による難易度もありそうでした。 クリアしたあとに怒涛のストーリーは驚かされましたが、 異変探索中には全然触れられてこないので後付け感はありました。 ゲームプレイをしつつストーリーなどを楽しむのではなく、 単純に難易度の高い異変探しと敵とのチェイスを楽しめる人にはおすすめです。
有繁体中文 没成就 《拨暗寻光》 规则简单,逃离不易。你被困在一栋普通房屋的无尽循环中,唯一的武器是细致观察和电灯开关。 玩法:仔细观察屋内一切——墙上的画、家具、声音。发现异常(画变了?盆栽在动?)就按下开关;一切正常则上床睡觉。一个错误,循环重启。 特色: 观察即武器:无战斗无道具,全靠双眼。 异常多变:每次循环异常位置与形态不同。 短小精悍:15-60分钟的高密度心理恐怖体验,考验神经。
Aunque simple, me parece un juego entretenido, curioso y la ambientación es muy buena, de igual modo que los sustos. Recomendado.
The game is good, but could you show us our mistakes at the end of each night instead of at the very end of the game? This would help us know what to look out for. (Recommended)
