DarkSwitch Global Steam

The Tree is everything

Ascend the heights of the Great Tree in a vertical city-builder where light is your only lifeline.

In Dark Switch, you are the architect of a civilization clinging to the boughs of a massive, 200-meter-tall tree. Below you, a supernatural Creeping Fog swallows the world, driving the weak to madness and concealing eldritch terrors. To survive, you must master the power of Solium, manage precious resources, and build upward into the canopy before the gloom claims your people.

Featuring an hauntingly atmospheric soundtrack by legendary Silent Hill composer Akira Yamaoka, Dark Switch delivers a masterclass in folk horror and strategic survival.

Features:

• Vertical Urban Planning: Break away from flat maps. Strategize across a 200-meter-tall tree, utilizing the trunk and sprawling boughs. Connect your settlement layers with intricate networks of zip lines and stairways to overcome limited horizontal space.
• Master the Light: The Fog is your greatest enemy. Defend your home by illuminating paths, crafting light-powered weaponry, and managing the raw energy of Solium to push back the darkness and maintain citizen morale.
• Deep Management & Tech: Oversee 11 distinct resource types and navigate 4 levels of technology. With over 80 unique buildings, you can customize your arboreal city to withstand the relentless pressures of the fog.
• Exploration into the Unknown: Launch airship detachments and scout teams into the mist. Establish far-flung outposts, chart new routes, and excavate ancient artifacts from the ruins of fallen civilizations.
• Grim Moral Choices: Shape the destiny of your nation through a branching narrative where there are no easy answers. Small decisions can spiral into devastating consequences in a world of creeping dread.
• Epic Campaign: Immerse yourself in over 20 hours of story-driven gameplay, featuring cinematic cutscenes and high-stakes quests that uncover the secrets - and the doom - of those who came before.
