Darkness Survival for Android
A very good visual 'rogue Like' game. Way above the normal top down dungeon crawler. Not too much grey and lacks color. Understand it's a gloomy dungeon but would be more enjoyable if grass was green instead of dead grey. I might play for a few hours in this dull ash dark dungeon. I believe that it would be more enjoyable if the texture changed to a brown from an dwarves catacomb, green of an underground wellspring, black of the underside of a dead marsh. Some imagination would make this less of a chore.
An excellent rogue-like dungeon crawler, with an atmosphere and system of its own. The premium features are unobtrusive, wholly optional, and thoughtfully integrated with the game. There is a curious atmosphere that keeps you exploring, making discoveries, and murdering monsters. The frailty of the protagonist really adds to the sense of peril. If you liked Pixel Dungeon, you will like this. Subtle elements and a unique ambiance make this one a winner for me.
I'm not normally a fan of roguelike games because they're often too easy to beat first try or don't feel worth replaying. This game certainly makes you work to progress but rewards your efforts making the game feel all the more satisfying! I especially have always enjoyed the aspect of random upgrades instead of bought upgrades more. I've only just begun a week ago and I've yet to pass floor 3 lol because I explore every room and try finding every secret! I have one spell I really love too that buffs your secret finding skills so you can't not find all the secrets if you get the elder scroll for it!
This game is one of the best on the app store. While it does have microtransactions, its premium currency is relatively easy to obtain outside of that, with the 'memories' you get from dying or passing through boss floors. The only time I've felt compelled to spend money on currency was when I died unexpectedly, and even then I only spent $3. Considering how many hours I've put into this game, def worth it.
Great game. The only thing I have a little confusion on is how to use search, other than that it's great. The people that say it needs checkpoints or saves are idiots, if it did it wouldnt be a SURVIVAL game it would be a normal game, the goal is to see how far you get not how many checkpoints you can pass
Very well put together. The tutorial text in the beginning takes way too long and I wish I could have has the ability to tap it along once I read it. What are you trying to say, I'm a slow reader and I have been hit with a fistful of hammers straight to my brain?
This game is great if you are into roguelikes. No directions, no hand holding, just go go go. You got cursed and then died. Try again. A crocodile ate you, start again. You want to watch an ad for a slightly better chance of survival, good for you support the game maker. Also the spelling and phrasing is incorrect a lot. I don't know if game was not originally in English.
Can't give 5 stars as no game is perfect imo.....Great game though but is all about luck with rewards and dungeon layouts for each attempt.... I've hit floor 16 so far but still die on floors 3/4 sometimes. Exciting and difficult game which I love.
Based on Pixel Dungeon code plus features to make it super hard. Starvation is quick. Items degrade. Scrolls have a chance of failure. But inventory size is the same as in Pixel Dungeon so you can't carry more stuff. All this to make you buy the starting busts. It could work if the game progress wasn't so slow.
I really like this game!! Games can be really fast to really long depending on how many monsters you come in contact with and the choices that you make. The game is different every time. The potions, scrolls, even weapons and armor are unidentified until you're able to identify it. Recommend this if you like dungeon games and searching for treasure.
This a great rogue-like game, the only issue I have is the connectivity. Twice I fought the crocodile boss and died, but I got no memory pieces when that happened. This was because the game was stuck trying to connect. The game could also do with some explanation of how hunger and searching works. Finally, they should allow more than one class skill to be equipped at a time, even if it's done as a New Game+ reward, because having only one slot ever means that the same skill gets picked all the time, ignoring everything else except for one-time novelty.
Great dungeon crawler. Remember not to walk with search active it takes a lot more fatigue and hunger, don't get surrounded, use doorways as choke points, control bosses with rooting abilities, wear them down from range and dont get in close for the kill less you have too. Flipping great game! Love the character progression, learning from past lives, frustrating at first but its very original! Wish there was a better drop rate on meat seriously! The rats should always drop meat still take herbs to cook after all. Love the crafting and alchemy. Very fun!
I would rate higher, but the game would be better off with a offline mode tbf. Google play crashes the game; especially when I get to a shop in the game. menus are slow for me, seems to sometimes take extra time to move on. otherwise brilliant concept, fan of the graphic styles and a massive RPG head, soo ticks quiet a lot of boxes otherwise. thank you.

ชอบทุกอย่างเลย ยากแต่แฟร์ อย่างน้อยตายแล้วได้รางวัลคุ้มค่าเหนื่อย ไม่เหมือนบางเกม ตะบี้ตะบันให้คนเล่นซื้อเพชร Oh and please rebalance camping mechanic, or atleast let player sleep without having to camp but increase danger. The later floor is practically impossible to sleep without that fire seed thing.
This is the best rouge game I've played since Pixel Dungeon. I can't stop playing it. My only complaint is that the brightness isn't bright enough. Even when the brightest option is selected I still find it hard to see during the day when I'm outside
Fun game to play but difficult to get far. Every time I play it's rare that I find rations to keep from starving, or fire, and wood to rest. I either die from starvation or I become tired. Sometimes I only find wood when clearing a floor or only find fire never both. You get hungry way to fast to keep up. Another down side is that you can't save as you go. You have to keep starting over from the beginning. Other than those issues the game is great
Good game, but this game doesn't seem want players to make it ????. its online game and don't even have a checkpoint. if you made it to 20th flr and died. you have a start all over again, its boring. . alot of monsters, poison and anything to get you killed, but lack of Healing items for your character. can you give just a little bit favor for the players? all the favors are for monsters
Love the game. Suggestion, could a random starting stat block be implemented when starting a new character? Would give another random element to the game. The same stats make it a little too repetitive. I have finally beat all the Boss' s on all four classes! Now trying to beat on Hard difficulty
Little upset, finally got past floor 5, made it to 8, it unlocked a ton of stuff then froze.. re opened and I'm back with only the first class unlocked and nothing from hitting floor 8...
Great game, so far I've only reached the eighth floor, teleported into a pool of piranhas while trying to see....nevermind! Hahaha fun game though, wouldn't change anything that I can think of at current. Good work.
This is a good roguelike title drawing a lot of influence from games like pixel dungeon. If I didn't know better I'd say this is a port of pixel dungeon. There are a few different features to help keep things fresh. The only downside to this game is its heavy reliance on luck. Sure there is some strategy involved, but losing the game simply because the healing potions you find end up being cursed (by random chance) can be frustrating.
lete when u get the hang of it, only problem is your survival depends in what bags you get at 3rd floor, it feels as if tote bag= 100% survival chance, scroll bag =50% survival chance, alchemy bag =0% survival chance, but no big problem can just restart the game when i get the alchemy bag first, lol. Hard mode provide more challenge but still possible to beat.
I love this game, but remember to read the description regarding resurrecting! I missed the "HP at 30%" part and wasted all those coins. That would be my only gripe about the game.
So I really want to play this game. The first screen loads. It tells me to select a tile to move, and then nothing? Am I doing something wrong? I'm pressing all over the screen... I think it freezes. If someone can help the game looks cool. So if I get it to work ill leave a solid review.
I downloaded this game and played it for a while. It's hard enough to level up and to craft weapons or armor...I mean is it possible to at least keep our player level so we won't struggle that much when we die...I love the challenge but wow makes it real hard to beat the game when you start all over again from 0... But it's a great game better than most out there????
The game was great until it decided to begin a tutorial for crafting, but doesn't provide the currency for the tutorial..? The message then pops up to informs you that you do not have the required amount, but breaks the game because you can't select anything and have to close the game resulting in an endless loop.
Could have been good if it was possible to get to B16 without having to spend 1000 dollars. I wasted so much time and just never got anywhere because they made it impossible... The rewards are minuscule and unrewarding. My fair advice, don't waste your time or money as I did.
Unbalanced The game's RNG for the items it spawns needs to be fairer for the player. Too often will you be on low health, at times going through a whole floor without finding any means of rations or healing. Similar mechanics to Pixel Dungeon but without a difficulty curve and more imprpoper balancing.
Great dark and atmospheric game. Frustrating at times but good if you like a challenge and has a subtle uprade system that can seem kinda slow at times. However after last update unable to continue my saved game.
Way too much negative RNG to be a good game. RNG is a necessary in an randomized RPG but over the top with always close to 0 dmg from players while npcs deal criticals plus you have to taste test 10+ potions for positive effect is simply not making sense.
This game isn't really a fair one. It gives you nothing and wants you to complete it without losing your temper. I have tried 27 times to get past dungeon 5. I have leveled up my skills to between 5 & 8, but still struggle. There are enemies in nearly every room that, regardless of armour, cause a lot of damage, and all you have to fight back with is a stick or shortsword that 90% of the time, misses or deals a single 1 damage??! It's pretty much impossible to search all the floors due to nearly dying with hunger if you do, and the merchant is incredibly difficult to find, and expensive. Only way to get past all these is to sit and watch video after video and earn skills shards that way, which is BORING!!!!
It was great so far... but now I'm stuck in the tutorial after you die because it's telling me to click on something I can't click on, and won't let me do anything else
The game is great, but way too hard if you don't put quite a lot of money in it. There's no real progression because you lose everything when you die, you can't level up, nor can you upgrade your gear permanently. Also you need wifi to play it.
Few lag on deeper floor, and why i haven't seen any luck potion..? And, Please add new Lv6 weapon, bow, and armour, new equipment skill, new recipes, new potion,enemies, stats, buff and debuff, traps, etc.. and some epic and legend bow.. btw, good job.. i got hooked pretty fast, great time killer game..
What's up with rats poisoning you even when they miss completely. Damage range of weapons is way too large, throwing weapons are useless as they brake immediately. You can accidently throw important items to we'll as game doesn't ask confirmation. Shops don't tell prices, if you don't have enough money. You can "miss" Backpack button and get moved around.
This looked like it could be a very interesting game but, within the first few minutes had to watch ads or get nickled and dimed to death in order to advance. Why these devs don't offer something like "Buy entire game for $9.99, as an option eludes me. Probably would have paid it......instead, uninstalled it!
Hardcore games like this are rare, and Darkness Survival sets a high standard. Great graphics and animation. Controls could easily be buffed to make item access faster in combat, but I'm guessing that's already in the works. Great job gang!
Great game. Can I ask an idea? What about a compendium of all items, enemies, magic and potions etc you have found. And have a % found so I can really go compleationist :)
The best game i ever had... And for those noobs who hate this game because its hard.. Shame on you guys,,,, only true gamers will feel the real excitement when the game is hard.!

I've played for maybe 2 or 3 hours. With that said, iv barely scraped the hours upon what seems hours of potential gameplay here. It's alot like wazhack, with all the unidentified potions, weapons and scrolls. I give this game a 5 star for achieving such great gameplay value. Can play endlessly and replaying is where the fun really comes from. GREAT job devs, you really hit the nail on the head with this game.
