It's dark. How long has it been dark?
Monsters prowl everywhere, supplies are scarce. Decide your tasks, carry them out, find more survivors to help, fight back the creatures that emerge from the Night. You must survive, because surely Dawn Will Come.
Content warning: Death, low-res gore, body horror, animal harm, stalking; screen flashing in combat scenes.
How to Play Each day, assign a task for each person (Rest, Guard, or Search). Their current task is indicated by the icon in the bottom left of their screen. Once you've decided what everyone will do, select Do Tasks by the campfire to carry them out.
Resting will recover some health, but unguarded sleepers may be attacked in the night.Guarding will protect your sleepers and supplies, but your guards may have to fight.Searching will potentially get you useful supplies and new friends, but searchers may take damage from prowling monsters. You can also select Move by the campfire to change locations. Explore different locations to find new people for your party. If you Move, you will consume more food that day, will not rest, and your assigned guards will have to fight off monsters.
The game auto-saves every night. Do not turn off your Game Boy or emulator while the screen is black.
