A Dark Room

How to play

1. Keep the fire alive, gather resources and decide when your village is ready for a journey.
2. The story opens gradually as new people, buildings and places become available.
3. Use the external host's game menu for detailed rules and any restart or save options.

Make your move

• Choose the actions shown by the official game page. The host uses a compact desktop-oriented layout; mobile behavior is limited.
• Check the host's Help or Controls guide for every key and touch action.
• Denny Games has not verified a complete external game session or device compatibility.

A small head start

• Take a moment to read each new option; small choices open the next part of the story.
• Read the host's controls and rules before starting a longer run.

Compatibility notes
