Very scary indeed, some parts are too dark and depending how tech savvy you are to tweak your pc to make things brighter, you might end up getting stuck. Otherwise playing it with headphones at midnight sent me chills.

Well this was intense. From the Darkness is a short horror game (took me an hour) that takes place (mostly) inside an apartment. The apartment is cramped and it's not that big, so you can imagine that a lot of things are going to happen. There's a constant tension from the moment you start going through the objects in the house and start noticing weird stuff. When the lights start to fail... dude. Got me a few times, genuine scares. The final part of the game was the weakest for me. Without spoiling, there's a part where you have to go through a certain path while following a correct combination, which felt a bit random until I understood how to recognize the path. And the ending was a bit predictable, but I liked it. This is what a short game should be: not an asset flip, not a cash grab, but a well made compact and intense experience.

DUde.... this game was so scary. I like had so much anxiety playing this game. :( It reminded me of how scary games could get. I legit was craving smth this scary for ao long cuz horror games have just not been scary lately. >.< Very happy with my purchase. <3

This is more of a sideways thumb because the game is decently spoopy(I jumped a few times) with some excellent visuals, but impossible for me to complete. Like one of the other reviewers, once I got to about 3/4 of the way through I kinda just wanted it to be over because the lighting was frustrating and tasks became a little tedious. As with most indie walking sim horror games, I am accustomed to having to backtrack a lot to trigger the next event or progress the story. 100% a-ok- no problems there because I like walking sims. This one was tough because there wasn't a brightness slider to adjust and I ended up having to quit near the end of the game because I got stuck in the dark somehow with no clear way out or forward. RIP. My personal struggles with the experience aside, it looks like others were able to complete and find enjoyment here so I can't truthfully say that it is a bad game. It just wasn't for me. <3 I'd say buy this on sale. For science. :P

Pretty spooky game. Unsettling atmosphere. Enough things happening visually/aurally to keep you on your toes. A few cheap scares, but they aren't doing the heavy lifting for why it's nightmarish and makes you sweat. Puzzles ain't so hard, but you kinda gotta figure out there's a puzzle to do in the first place. Forgiving yet challenging still. Game took me 30 minutes apparently and I spent a good ten minutes of that hiding/unsure what to do next? Go for it 40% off at least? I'm gay so a shirtless Russian man in boxers isn't that spooky to me, just hot. If that's hot to you then go for 20% off
