Overview
Description

You move into a new house only to be plagued by terrifying nightmares. The source of the terror lies in an alien‑created Dark World that can be accessed through a mysterious magic mirror. As you explore both the ordinary home and its twisted counterpart, you must solve puzzles and uncover the truth behind the alien invasion. Your goal is to confront the nightmarish beings and banish them before they consume reality. Dark Seed blends point‑and‑click adventure with sci‑fi horror, delivering a chilling atmosphere and challenging puzzles. Available for PC and Mac, the single‑player experience offers a classic 1992 horror adventure that still haunts fans of the genre.

Tormentum: Dark Sorrow plunges players into a surreal world inspired by H.R. Giger and Zdzislaw Beksinski, blending dark fantasy with horror atmospheres. Explore three distinct realms, solve intricate puzzles, and confront moral dilemmas that determine the ending of this haunting adventure.
