Nice little game worth your time
Darq is a fantastic puzzle game. Just like the title suggests, it's got an extremely gloomy atmosphere, some scare jumps here and there, and boasts a certainly dark sense of humour at times. However, do not let the tags misguide you, there's barely any action or adventure here, 99% of the game, and its main selling point is puzzles. While I don't know if they are pioneering this type of puzzle, I found them to be very original and fun to solve. There have been a few times when I got stuck, but it was my fault for not trying certain navigation options. You see, in Darq you get to navigate the different chapters in all 3 dimensions, which means your character may have to go towards you. While it won't jump out of the screen, it will reveal areas of the map that you didn't know existed. Sound, graphics, some gruesome artwork and scenes tie it all together making this a very cohesive and artistically sound game; it reminds me a bit of the film "Nightmare before Christmas" by Tim Burton. The complete edition comes with 2 DLCs. Each of these is the equivalent of a chapter and they are a nice addition to the 6 the base game comes with. If there's anything I can hold against Darq is its length vs the current price. I find £16 to be a little steep considering you can finish the game in a few hours and there isn't that much replay value other than trying to complete all the achievements, since the puzzles will be the same every time. Still, your time will be well spent here; highly recommended. 9/10.
