Summary
More Dark is a puzzle platformer where you need to move objects and kill enemies to get to the exit of each level. It works well and is easy enough to pick up and play. Might take a short while to get used to the short jumps and how the game relies more on reflexes and timing rather than puzzle-solving. To break it all up More Dark will sprinkle in some Breakout-style mini-games which are cool despite no warning or tutorial on it happening. Overall it’s a game that doesn’t really do anything new but then it doesn’t really need to as it does a simple idea well.
