    I really don’t feel like I’m doing When the Darkness Comes a real service here. Oh, sure, I’m saying I love it and it’s getting a great score. However, it’s hard to describe why I actually love it so much without ruining it for other people. If anything in this review has even vaguely interested you then I implore you to give it a chance. It’s a free game and the most you stand to lose is a couple of hours of your time. Give it to When the Darkness Comes though, and you may just come away with one hell of a fantastic experience.

    Spielmechanisch darf man zudem nicht viel erwarten, obwohl mit dem Gang durch die Dunkelheit und vereinzelten Sprungsequenzen mehr Anspruch sowie Tiefgang geboten wird als in manch anderem Wandersimulator. Es wäre aber schön gewesen, wenn sich weitere Durchläufe noch stärker voneinander unterscheiden würden. Also genießt vor allem das erste Mal: When the Darkness Comes ist eine kurze, aber mitunter intensive Spielerfahrung, die haften bleibt.
