Taking around an hour on the first play-through, "When The Darkness Comes" feels like you're wandering around a glitchy hard drive full of abstract dreams and beautiful nightmares. The narrator initially makes it feel like a comedic game, but it soon starts to take a darker tone as you travel down the bizarre broken rabbit hole that explores the darkest themes of the human mind.

Don't remember much, but it always felt rather pretentious.
i like the idea butttt could be be better
A game completely comprised of self help and corecore tiktok quotes
Fun. Kinda meta without being too up its own ass. However, I think the trigger warnings at the start are a bit overblown, and honestly I don't care enough to play a second time to see whatever new content there might be.
An idiots idea of depression, anxiety and other 2deep4u dark themes made worse by terrible writing, horrendous voice acting and extremely tedious segments that bog the whole thing down
What made it even worse is that after getting an ending, reloading the game causes the software to forcibly change your desktop background. It does warn you that it's going to use certain items of system information before you play but actions like that are unnacceptable.
It cost $0 and I still felt ripped off

I played this game over a year ago, and I had to revisit again because it's such a masterpiece.
"When the Darkness comes" is a short single player experience which gives and insight to people with depression and anxiety. The graphics, landscape and little games are very fitting which really give a gloomy vibe to the game.
The game also messes with your PC and adds little easter eggs throughout for you to uncover yourself, adds a little touch to the horror aspect. It is quite short, but it's still a engaging psychological horror.. It's free to play, so why not give it a go?
I would definitely recommend this game, provided you do not have any mental issues :)
