Darkwood Creeps To Switch In May

During the Nindies Showcase today, a Switch port for Acid Wizard’s Darkwood was announced.

The top-down survival horror game will release sometime in May 2019. Play as a lone survivor trapped in a strange town struck with a mysterious plague. Craft items, set traps, and survive against the sinister evils lurking in the darkness. Check out the game’s original release trailer, along with some details about the Switch port below.

Acid Wizard Studio and Crunching Koalas set their survivor horror game in East-Central Europe, in a forest possessed by unknown evil forces that corrupt all the inhabitants of the woods: people, animals and even the plants. Players can get new powers by extracting a strange essence from mutated fauna and flora and injecting it into their bloodstream. The game builds an atmospheric, psychological feeling of tension without the usual horror tricks of jump scares and creaking doors. The game launches on Nintendo Switch in May.
