Stifling Dark

2–5 players · 50–125 min

The Stifling Dark pits a team of investigators against one player controlling a hidden adversary. Search for evidence, manage your stamina, and use acrylic flashlights to reveal what lies within your line of sight while the adversary moves secretly on a separate map.

Investigators can collect and use items, interact with doors, and draw on their characters’ individual abilities. Once enough evidence has been gathered, the team can pursue the scenario’s routes to escape or fight back. Staying together offers protection, but splitting up can cover more ground. The adversary has its own abilities and objectives, making every movement decision part of a tense contest between pursuit and survival.
