When the Darkness Comes: A Haunting Walking Simulator Exploring Mental Health

A Game Without Meaning. A Game Nobody Should Play. Enter the unsettling world of When the Darkness Comes, a psychological walking simulator that delves into the complex realities of depression and anxiety. Navigate glitchy, dark, and intensely personal digital landscapes designed to evoke feelings of isolation and despair.

A clock, a piano, and a girl... What significance do these elements hold within the game's narrative? What does 'meaning' even mean within this world of digital sorrow? Embark on a journey of self-reflection, confronting questions about purpose, predetermination, and the search for a guiding light amidst overwhelming darkness.

Explore a world consumed by loneliness and fear, where despair is palpable and hope seems to fade away. This interactive experience is a raw and honest exploration of the human condition, touching upon universal themes of humanity and the complexities of life itself.

Before Starting: Important Considerations

This Experience is NOT for everyone. When the Darkness Comes tackles sensitive and potentially triggering topics. The game explicitly explores themes such as depression, anxiety, verbal abuse, manipulative control, and suicide. Due to visual elements, this game could also potentially trigger epilepsy attacks in susceptible individuals.

Seriously, do NOT play this Experience if you believe these themes might negatively affect you in any way. The first Arc is designed to take approximately one hour to complete.

About the Experience: A Personal Journey

This game represents the culmination of a deeply personal self-exploration. The developer considers this a form of digital art. While I will not be providing future updates (outside of major bug fixes) I hope you enjoy the experience as it is.
