Welcome To The Dark Place – Trailer #1 – YouTube
Framed as a “nightmare playground of ideas,” the game pairs clipped text with evocative sound design to draw you inward and push you toward an exit. It’s unsettling in a restrained way, and selectively uses shadowy pixel-art vignettes to suggest what’s lurking beneath the surface.
I really like it — both as a discrete project and as Zeekerss’s next move. Working on this title acted as a palate cleanser after the constant demands of Lethal Company and reconnects the developer with the experimental instincts visible in titles like The Upturned and It Steals.
An early trailer first appeared in 2019, indicating this has been a long-gestating passion project. Welcome to the Dark Place is free to play, making it a neat, spooky diversion for Halloween whether you’ve been looting moons or not.
Lethal Company’s creator praised another viral co-op hit — one with about 28,000 Steam reviews — calling it “the funniest objective for a horror game.”
