Sekai Games is bringing dramatic visual novel A Light in the Dark to Nintendo Switch on April 13th. The game, developed by CreSpirit and released on Steam by Sekai Project was released on Steam back in 2018.
Hao-Chen Jiang did not understand what it was when he opened his eyes. Before him was a dim and dreary room that he had not seen before. Trying to get up to turn on the lights, he finds that his arms are tied behind him and that is when he realizes that he’s been kidnapped. It is then that a mysterious girl appears before him and with a look of disdain tells him that he’s been kidnapped and unless his family agrees to pay a ransom he has no chance to escape. But perhaps there is more to this than just money…
The rich boy stuck in his never changing daily life…
The fierce girl struggling for survival…
Two people in totally opposite positions in life.During his days of imprisonment, they will learn of a world they were never aware of which will crumble away at their deep-rooted prejudices. In the face of confusion and the choices before them, what will they find…?
A Light in the Dark is an original visual novel game from the creative minds of CreSpirit, Storia and Narrator. Featuring interactive elements to push the story forward, examine your surroundings and formulate a plan to escape but beware of your stamina!
This edition of the game also features the voice talents of Kubo Yurika and Ichinose Kana as the voices of the older girl and the younger girl.
This is the first project brought to the Nintendo Switch from Sekai Games since the 2021 release of Heart of the Woods. Hopefully this is a sign that Sekai Games plans to release more titles on the Nintendo Switch as the publisher currently publishes more than a dozen titles on Steam every year.
A Light in the Dark will retail for $24.99 CAD when it is released on the Nintendo eShop. There is a 20% preorder discount on the game right now which runs thru April 5th.
The game has an ‘M’ rating for blood and violence.
