Ratalaika Games has announced that More Dark, a puzzle-platformer that launched on Steam last year, will be lurking its way onto the Switch eShop later this week.
Featuring "animated blood and cruelty intended for an adult audience", More Dark has players taking on 60 platforming levels made up of a range of puzzles and gameplay mechanics. You'll find bombs, power jump items and gravity swap items along the way to help you do just that, as well as hidden keys to find, mini-games to play, and a couple of bosses to take down.
Here's the synopsis:
After the Lord of the Other World went on vacation his leadership was temporarily taken over by his sweet daughter, Evilina.
Soon enough, well, all Hell broke loose. The prisoners of damnation have all escaped from their confinements and scattered about the kingdom, shattering the fragile peace of the devil’s dominion.
As a devoted minion of Evilina, your task is to lead a battalion of demons and return order to Hell, corral the escaped convicts, and cleanse each area of chaos and anarchy. Can you save Hell, or perhaps earn redemption?
The game launches on Switch on 27th November and will be priced at $4.99 / €4.99.
Do you think this one might be a worth a go for the asking price? Feel free to share your thoughts with us in the comments.

Looks a lot like Rick Dangerous and other games from that era.
Looks like it could be a fun little puzzle game and at that price its worth taking a chance.
Talking dark puzzle games, I would also love to see a port of 2Dark come across to switch.
I haven't seen a single novel idea in this trailer. :/
I am not sold, except for the artwork of the sexy lady.
5 bucks ain’t bad. I’ll prob still get it at %50 sale or something though since the backlog is in the several hundreds now.
@kjdaco exactly what I thought! Loved Rick Dangerous back in the day on my C64
Hate the sprite art, and the gameplay doesn't look notable, so it's a pass from me.
From the trailer it looks like a fun enough, but the "for adults" marketing? I'm not against adult content in games, but this is barely adult. Some pixel blood fx and the occasional scantily clad lady? It's barely anything, I doubt I'd have noticed it if they hadn't pointed it out so deliberately. Feels like they're trying to distract me from some of it's failings elsewhere with a forced gimmick.
I hope I'm wrong and it's actually a very competent and fun game though!
Well shoot. After learning about Illuminati and their symbolism, a game like this is ruined for me ...
@Reydn
I love how much story there seems to be unsaid in your comment.
Like, "I was just walking home the other day when someone came up to me on the street and gave me in depth details on the illuminati and their symbolism. Oh well, this game is ruined now. . ."
I know it isn't like that, but you leave so much unsaid, just sitting there for us to fill in the blanks.
I think different people have different definitions of "adult"...
I can't think of a single adult who would look at this game's visual style and think 'now this is the mature, adult kind of game I've been looking for on my Switch..."
i want to like it based on the description but that pixel style is not appealing to me
@Dualmask 2Booty is what we need
