One of the best mobile point-and-click adventures. Period. – Dark Fear Review

As I write this, I am noticing that Dark Fear has only five written reviews in the App Store. This just goes to show how woefully underappreciated and overlooked this game is. It is one of the best mobile games of the adventure genre. Obviously the retro, pixel-heavy gaming revival is nothing new, but Dark Fear harkens back to a specific era of computer adventure that few (if any) modern titles come close to emulating. The puzzles aren't anything too out of the ordinary, but in the context this great art style, they work very well. At first I was admittedly skeptical about the RPG-style battle/upgrade/equip system, but it turned out to be a great way to break up the monotony that many puzzle adventure games can face. The battles introduced a cool grinding element to stretch out the gameplay and cleanse your palette a bit between tasks. So yeah, tremendously good mobile adventure game. It definitely belongs in the same conversation as The Room, Monument Valley, Lumino City, etc. Now if only we can get sites to review this game and get it the attention it deserves.
