Have you ever player Super Meat Boy or VVVVV and thought 'what if this game hand bland music, bland level design, a weird time limit mechanic,Have you ever player Super Meat Boy or VVVVV and thought 'what if this game hand bland music, bland level design, a weird time limit mechanic, and HORRIBLE controls?' Well that basically sums this game up. Take all the bad parts of those two games, none of the good parts, and combine them with LIMBO rip-off graphics and you have A Walk in the Dark.

As A Walk in the Dark comes with such a low price, it’s definitely worth a punt, especially if you like platformers. The world it creates is evocative and superbly designed with an amazing soundtrack.

Alice in Wonderland in the aesthetic world of Limbo with the spiky difficulty of Ori and the Blind Forest. A modest videogame, but most of all, solvent.

For less than a fiver, it’s a bargain, if for nothing else but to experience the bizarre feeling of absolute frustration and absolute relaxation in tandem, courtesy of well-structured, taxing level design and Cody Cook’s beautiful soundtrack.
