Three men are sitting in the forest. Neither do they know each other, nor do they know where they are. But one thing is clear: not all of them will survive this night. Experience the night from the perspective of one of the three men and make decisions that will (maybe) let you survive this night. Each has their own personality, their own goals and their own ideas. It won't be easy to find the right path. In addition to 110 plot lines that lead to certain death, there are 3 that ensure survival. "Fire in the Dark" is a text adventure with atmospheric ambience. A sophisticated design and soundscape assist in an enjoyable reading and decision-making experience. The graphic depictions are minimalist and hint at what is happening. Pictorially described, violent actions are written in text form. There are 4 protagonists: The First ... He is tall and strong. His mind is simple. The second ... The second man is the small one, very nervous by nature. The third ... The third is nothing special. Not tall, not short. He seems mediocre. The narrative voice ... It accompanies you away from the night.

I ask for your understanding, that the one or other time advertising must be switched, in order to be able to earn some money for our work. But don't worry. The advertising is placed in a way that it does not disturb the flow of the game. Have fun and a happy horror! PS. It was translated automatically. The original language is German.
