This might be a tense thriller, but it’s about believable characters touched by real-world things. Here it’s more stressful, because it feels like real life. In horror games such as The Quarry, 2K’s bigger-budget narrative summer blockbuster, it’s kinda fun to play around with characters’ lives. It also puts you in some horrible situations, because the interests of the people you’re playing are often at odds with each other. This develops empathy for every character, particularly when you start delving backwards and forwards through their lives after the tense set-piece of the motel stand-off. What you say, what you do, how long you take to press a button to open a window or make a grab for someone’s gun – affect what happens to everyone, both immediately and hours later, at the end of the story. As Dusk Falls is a branching thriller that you play out from both perspectives: the antagonists, and the victims. Reveal insights about yourself and those you play with as you discover the underlying values of your decisions in cooperative gameplay with up to 8 players at a time, locally or online (or a mix). Follow two families in their struggle to survive, protect, and endure through challenges rooted in the previous generations’ mistakes. Can you break free from your family’s toxic influence? What will you sacrifice for the ones you love? Can you overcome your past? Your decisions will shape the characters’ fates.
The cinematic story is brought to life by the performance of actors that are digitally rendered into a beautiful art style, creating a unique experience that plays like a motion graphic novel.
