‘DARQ’ Preps for E3 with New Teaser Trailer

Published

on

It’s been a long time since we talked about Unfold Games’ psychological side-scroller DARQ. Two years, actually. Despite not meeting its goal in its Indiegogo camp, DARQ has forged ahead. So far, in fact, that Unfold Games have released a new teaser for the game. They’ll also be at E3 this year, so if you’re one of the lucky folks who gets to go, do check it out.

For a refresher, DARQ puts you in the shoes of Lloyd, a boy who becomes aware of the fact that he is dreaming. Unfortunately, the dream quickly turns into a nightmare for him, and all his attempts to wake up fail. While exploring the darkest corners of his subconscious, Lloyd learns how to survive the nightmare by “bending the laws of physics and manipulating the fluid fabric of the dream world”.

The big gameplay component is the fantastical physics, where you’ll end up doing things such as walking on walls and ceilings or levitating to solve puzzles, as well as manipulating the dream world by moving objects or rotating rooms. You will face enemies, but seeing as they’re so much stronger and faster than Lloyd, stealth and avoidance is paramount.

Head over to the official site to check out new screenshots and videos, too! DARQ is slated for release fourth quarter of this year for PC, with a potential console release in the future.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
