About the game
DarkHood is a cosy dark platform adventure in which the only light comes from your own aura. You guide a brave boy in a dark hoodie through candle-lit caves, past sleeping monsters and hidden passages, collecting every glowing gem along the way.
Bombs, pits and traps lie in wait, and each level ends at an exit gate that you need to unlock. The game is designed for short, relaxing sessions at home or on the go. On desktop, use the arrow keys or A and D to move and Space, W or Up to jump. On a phone, use the on-screen touch buttons.
