About this game

In the Dark - Night 1

When your darkest dreams come true, the line between desire and danger blurs.

Shouji Suzuki is a skilled assault brigade officer, but disconnected from a life that seems to offer him nothing but routine and loneliness. His only escape is intense, recurring dreams about an enigmatic woman with full lips and porcelain skin. A woman who, until now, he believed to be a figment of his imagination.

Everything changes during a high-risk mission in an abandoned house in Kobe. A wave of inexplicable violence, perpetrated by beings that defy reason, plunges the city into chaos. In the middle of the night, Shouji's path crosses that of Natsumi, a woman as fascinating as she is lethal, and the spitting image of the woman of his dreams.

She is not human. She belongs to a world hidden in the shadows, a world of blood and power where humans are only pawns or prey. Drawn into a secret war he knew nothing about, Shouji will be forced to choose between his duty as an officer and his obsession with this creature of the night.

As a larger, more sinister conspiracy looms over Kobe, Shouji will discover that the ties to his family's past are intrinsically linked to this new, dark world. Can he protect the woman he loves from the forces that pursue her, even if it means betraying everything he believes in?

In the Dark - Night 1 is an immersive narrative experience that combines dark romance and supernatural horror in a story of obsession, loyalty, and the secrets that lie in the blood.
