GamingTrendJackson LustbergDec 202490/100Dark and Deep is a horror game that lives up to its name, covering some pretty macabre themes and allowing the player to dive deep into the investigation. There are layers upon layers to the game's art, sound, and gameplay, and they all tie into each other in brilliant ways.

TheSixthAxisNov 20248/10Dark and Deep is a focused and atmospheric title that doesn't outstay it's welcome. Most of this time is spent immersed in the unique aesthetic and it stands out amongst the many other copycat PT wannabes that flood the horror tag on Steam. The ending is interesting although some of the imagery felt too separated from the Doré influence and instead moved into more conventional folk horror. All in all, Dark and Deep is a well polished and fascinating indie horror that has a look and feel all of its own, and for that it deserves a wider audience.

God is a GeekChris WhiteAug 20247/10Dark and Deep has some good ideas and some of the environments are well-designed, but movement feels clunky at times.

GameGrinArtura DawnAug 20246/10Dark and Deep is an enjoyable and eerie experience at the beginning that suffers from over-exposure to the otherwise unnerving monster, turning it from a horror experience into a puzzle walking simulator.
