GAME OF THE DAY - Into the Dark: Narakan is a roguelike unlike any other

There are so many games out there on mobile that it's sometimes easy to miss gems hidden amongst them. That's something we want to stop, which is where our Game of the day comes in - we make a selection that we think you should be playing, and then we tell you why.

Today is no different - and our choice is the wonderful Into the Dark: Narakan. And we're going to tell you why it's great in just a mo. While we've got your attention though, click here and you can check out our Game of the week hub, where you'll find every game we've selected to win the award so far. There are some amazing titles in there, and you should play them all.

Into the Dark: Narakan

Roguelikes are ten a penny on mobile, so any that wants you to sit up and take notice is going to have to do something different. That's exactly what Into the Dark: Narakan does. It doesn't look like anything else, it doesn't play like much else, and you're going to love every second you play it.

Don't get me wrong, there's some esoterica here that you're going to have to figure out, but that's half the fun. Into the Dark: Narakan doesn't hold your hand, but it's all the better for it. It's got a really interesting story that sucks you in, told in snatches as you discover more in the dungeons you're working your way through.
