Our Expert Score

85/100

Pitch Black: A Dusklight Story is an evocative narrative experience that proves you don't need high-end graphics to create a deeply immersive atmosphere. Playing as Enid, you navigate a world where sound is your primary guide, making the binaural audio design the true star of the show. The voice acting is top-tier, conveying a sense of vulnerability and mystery that kept me hooked from the first 'scene.'

What I found most compelling was how the game forces you to engage your imagination. In an era of sensory overload, this title scales back the visual noise to tell a focused, emotional story about light and darkness. It is less of a traditional 'game' and more of an interactive audio drama. While the gameplay mechanics are minimal, the emotional resonance is massive. If you're looking for something that feels like a playable novel for your ears, this is a must-play.

Music is a bit loud, but good everywhere else… Almost
Fri Oct 13 2023 Ashleigh Peach

Thank you for this totally accessible audio game. The music in between scenes is a bit loud, and when you pause the game, game progress, still resumes in the background. I wish that. did not happen, as, although the progress is muffled, you can forget what is going on while you’re saving the game. In other words, if someone’s speaking, while you’re saving the game, you might miss what they said, and there was no repeat option for that conversation. That would be nice, have a repeat option for anything. You might miss that isn’t already repeated. I also wish that the game returned to the main menu, without resuming your gameplay, one of your paws. I can’t wait for chapter 2, as a chapter one seems very short. I like that it’s free to obtain this game. Keep up the good work on all your projects.

Confused

I don’t seem to understand. Every time in the very beginning when I am chasing after that lady, when I do get close to her, she keeps moving away further and further but then the directions when I’m heading towards the shaking sound which I thought was left it will go right. When I go right, she’s somewhere else. Every time when I get close. Any suggestions here?

Little bit confusing

I played the whole game perfectly but I get stuck and confused in one area and that’s where you gotta go locate to docs at the pumping station it tells me what sound to listen for but when I use my audio poster whatever it’s called I can’t seem to know what sound it is audio Zoom that’s what it was called I had to think I know you don’t wanna give no spoilers but it would help if you can actually tell me how to actually get through that one area that’s where I get stuck through the whole game I hear everything all around me even the guy you help and I get stuck I don’t know what to listen for her which way to go how size that it’s a great game thank you and keep up the good work

Super confusing

I can’t get past the first level, whenever I try to find the lady she moves and I can’t find her. When it tells me to go right it randomly changes to left.
