Beautifully sad 10/10

July 2024

There is sadly no way to make them kiss. But otherwise the story was quite interesting and made me feel emotions in my cold dead heart. Even if that was mostly pity. Most of the spelling errors and bugs exist in the secret ending, it's philosophical underpinnings in this story is also a lot weaker than the other endings since it seems to run counter to the conversation that the MC has with Big Sis.

pretty cool experience, i'm not sure if the game is worth the price tag, but it enjoyed this game

If you have never experienced a Visual Novel you should give this gem a try. A Light in the Dark was my first VN and even though it is not a very long story it is until today my favourite VN with it's emotional depth. The story feels real and the topic of A Light in the Dark is very unique. The soundtrack is awesome and the art fits very well. Maybe it is a bit hard and subtile to reach every ending and you might need a guide to reach all of them but for the main story every detail about the circumstances is being revealed and the story feels complete.

Stockholm syndrome isn't real, it can't hurt you.
