This makes the game scary and also exciting. There’s always limited lighting and there are details and objects that capture your attention, even from the edges of your vision. In terms of design, the environment really uses some unsettling imagery that helps keep you on the lookout whether there are enemies or not. It leaves questions that lead to more materials beyond the game. It's heavily story-driven, although its ending is not as defined and as concrete as it should be. Expect to be left wanting for more as the game can be finished on an average of about 1 to 1.5 hours. It would’ve been nice to package the two together as just one game instead.Although it serves as an introduction to a larger game franchise, Lurk in the Dark works surprisingly well. The bulk of the story and gameplay of this series is found in the sequel. It’s mostly just an interactive fiction game with you as an audience and not the person who can change events-which fits the premise since you’re just watching the weird tape you found. However, that’s all this game has to offer. While the scenes are short and set in different hours of the dreary day, their chronological order is easy enough the follow. There are no prompts to interact with objects in order to progress as the game automatically proceeds to the next scene as soon as you reach the intended location. Gameplay-wise, the controls are pretty simple as you’ll just be walking around.
The scenes keep jumping around whenever the tape plays the next recording and there’s no context at all-leaving you to freely explore as much as the game allows you to. The game starts immediately with you watching it unfold and then it transitions into you being able to control whoever is recording the scene. The story of Harmful revolves around a mysterious VHS tape found abandoned deep in the woods.
