The game Dark Moonlight has been announced, and it may make gamers confront their deepest hidden fears. The game’s creators said they were inspired by things like the Black Mirror TV series and games like Outlast, Resident Evil, and Silent Hill, which is very prevalent in the announcement trailer. Check that out below.
Imagine living a life controlled by constant fear. Imagine being enslaved by phobias dictating what you can and cannot do. Picture yourself developing countless rituals intended to help you keep your fear under control, but which instead further enslaved you and only added to your burden. Imagine going to bed and waking up with mental pain that seems to grow and become unbearable every day.
Are you able to picture these things? Can you at least try to visualize what kind of a living hell this life must be? Rest assured that whatever you envision won’t come close to reality. Only then will you understand that you’d do anything and everything to make it all stop.
What is DARK MOONLIGHT
Well, here you are, tired of the seemingly completely ineffective, vicious cycle of conventional therapy-drugs. Desperately looking for help, you’ve finally decided to undergo an experimental treatment, one that was supposed to be tested, effective, and 100% safe. At least, that’s what the doctors said. And it all seemed to be going well… until it wasn’t. Suddenly, you wake up in a strange place that somewhat resembles the reality you know but is twisted in terrifying, horrific ways. Now you have a choice. You can either try to face and overcome your fears by fighting whatever this hostile world throws at you, or withdraw into yourself, plunge into madness, and stay here forever.
Dark Moonlight is a survival horror game exploring the themes of human fears and phobias. The title will give gamers a chance to become Dave Kellerman, a man who decides to try an unconventional psychological treatment. Instead of releasing him from his phobias, the therapy forces him into an unknown world at the borders of reality and nightmare.
To survive, David will have to put his fears and mental health aside. With limited means of defense, including weapons and ammo, and threatened by horrifying monsters and demons lurking in every corner, David will be challenged by clever puzzles his mind puts in front of him, trying to stop him from progressing. The question is – will he find the strength within himself to defeat the monsters, solve the puzzles, keep sane, and free himself from this horrific world?
