Eerily good!

Handy Games and THQ Nordic have been on fire with releases like Lock’s Quest and Aces of Luftwaffe! Because of the consistency of quality, they have easily become one of my current favorite developers. With that being said, the purchase of Darkest Times was an automatic one for me.Most of Handy Games library consists of games that are uplifting to play. This game, however, is a bleak look into a nation that is turning to socialism. The eerie comparisons between what is happening in our country and what happened during the Nazi rise is what really sets the tone. Plans are to be made with your comrades in order to combat this new regime performing Marxism. But you must be careful. Nazi sympathizers come in all forms and can be closer than you know. I thoroughly enjoy playing this game...even when it gets stressful seeing your co-conspirators getting arrested.

Love the game; bad mechanics

I love everything about the game! It truly is amazing. But when planning missions it take 15-20 tries to hit either “confirm” or “cancel” because the buttons are so close to the selectable players. It’s extremely frustrating and almost makes it unplayable on mobile.

Most important game on the App Store rn

I think this game should be included every school’s curriculum when covering WWII. Not only does it do a wonderful job of teaching history, but it connects you to it in a way that textbooks fail to. Without ever displaying a single swastika, the creators were able to characterize the sheer terror that was spread across Germany when Hitler became chancellor, and eventually the world. You really feel for these characters. You see just how quickly everything changed for so many people. You see how quickly things are capable of changing now. Seriously, support this game. The knowledge it provides is priceless, and the experience you’ll have in playing it will stick with you for a lifetime.

Brilliant

This masterpiece doesn’t seem to have gotten nearly the attention it deserves. Far from just being a history lesson, it’s a deep and addictive strategy game. There are interesting decisions to make about risk versus reward and making the most of your characters’ strengths. It’s difficult but not too difficult. The gameplay seamlessly integrates with a story that illustrates everyday life at the time.

Wonderful game!

This is a great game. It teaches many lessons on many levels. It is very nice that the average person can play and finish this very interesting game. All people and countries should heed the clear warning: Pride goes before a fall.

Great, I just ask a favor

Love the game, I have been playing it constantly since I downloaded it. My only gripe is there needs to be a way to skip the opening scenes and credits. It gets old after your 20th play through.

Goddamn Wonderful Story, although issues with game mechanics.

First things first— The story portion of the game is amazing, and really hits home the tragedy of the nazis, and it had me on the edge of my seat the whole time and really hit hard. Just simply wonderful, and the little moments present encapsulated a horror not easily understood with just detailed knowledge. Even though I am a WW2 Buff (made the mistake of reading a portion of the nightmarish Nuremberg Trial testimony) and have read a lot into Nazis and their awfulness, as well as have family who have suffered from the Holocaust, the story hit home like almost nothing else.With that said, the resistance mission portion of the game felt rather unpolished and unclear, and a lot of things didn’t make sense (ie actions from one time period don’t affect another, people get into disputes on missions way too much, you have a hard limit of five agents, and it is almost comically easy to save your agents from the SA prisons and interrogation areas whereas it can be very difficult to do something such as have an anonymous interview with a journalist in 1936). There also isn’t a lot of replay ability. With that said, it is still somewhat good as a game and the story makes up for a lot of it.

Description

Dark times mean fear and risks. The risk to be caught by patrolling National Socialists, looking for people who publicly stand against their point of view. The risk of being beaten up or even killed by the German military because we‘re opposing the regime.

The risk of losing everything, including our loved ones. This is how we live. This is how we try to survive. Through the darkest of times. Plan, Act, Survive You are the leader of a small resistance group in 1933’s Berlin, of ordinary people, from Jews to Catholics and Communists to Patriots who simply can’t stand aside. Your goal is to deal with small blows to the regime – dropping leaflets to spread awareness about what the Nazis are really up to among the people, painting messages on walls, sabotaging, gathering information and recruiting more followers. And all of that while staying undercover – if the regime’s forces learn about your group, the life of each member is in grave danger. Experience history Through the Darkest of Times is a historical resistance strategy game, focusing on conveying the somber mood of the period and the very real struggles of average people living in the 3rd Reich. Historical accuracy means that your small group of resistance fighters will not change the outcome of the war, nor will you prevent all of the Nazi’s atrocities, but you can certainly do everything in your power to save as many lives as you can and oppose the fascist system wherever possible. Features: ● Experience the Darkest of Times in 4 chapters ● Fight for freedom, weaken the regime and lead your resistance group ● Plan activities, find collaborators and try not to get caught ● Feel the weight of responsibility as you make difficult decisions and face the dire consequences ● Beautifully illustrated expressionistic scenes and events © HandyGames 2020
