I’m at the very least glad that the Switch release of Darq is the complete edition, with expansions. When you like something, you don’t really want it to end, and Darq’s levels are short and I wish there were more. While I don’t think games should be stretching their content to lengthen a game, I feel that Darq might be too short. I can’t say I really noticed any music outside of the creepy atmospheric ambience, but nonetheless, the game has fantastic creepy vibe to it. There’s not much in terms of color, but the character models, the environments, the lighting, it’s all fantastic. The first one of which was just the lead character getting shot.ĭarq is a beautiful game. It was even a bit shocking how sudden the deaths from them can be. This isn’t a combat focused game at all, so anytime you see something that looks dangerous, it is. Each DLC introduces brand-new gameplay mechanics, creepy new locations to explore, and the most mind-bending puzzles of the series, as well as delving deeper into the mysteries of Lloyd’s nightmares. Some puzzles in this level require you quickly go back and forth between the camera angles to either see something, do tasks, or grab a key item.ĭarq also on the occasion has stealth sections. About DARQ: Complete Edition DARQ: Complete Edition includes the DARQ base game as well as two DLC’s: The Tower, and The Crypt. In this level, you need to change the direction the camera is pointing, like Fez, Super Paper Mario, or a lesser known game named Crush/CRUSH3D. One of the game’s levels in particular I was fond of was placed in the city streets at night. In celebration of the launch of DARQ: Complete Edition, Unfold Games’ Game Director and CEO, Wlad Marhulets, will be hosting Reddit AMAs on the Xbox One and PS4 subreddits today. This isn’t something groundbreaking, but it still feels novel to me. Download the DARQ: Complete Edition press kit, here. If you feel like you’re stuck, try walking on the walls and interacting with something at a different angle. In most areas, you can walk on the walls and ceilings to get where you need to go, and this is something you’ll have to do for certain riddles. The main draw to me with Darq was the game’s mechanic of manipulating the angle for certain situations. Now, lets start the game by going to bed, and drifting off into a new nightmare for each level. While yes, Darq is a horror themed puzzle filled platformer, that’s about the single similarity. I came in expecting just a simple Little Nightmares clones. Darq is the latest in games that were happy surprises for me.
