6About Dark and Light
The shattered remains of the mother planet Gaia float in stark contrast against the sky on nearby satellite planet, Archos, serving as inescapable evidence of the dark forces surrounding the world. As a lone explorer in the wilderness, you must learn to understand the terrain, natural resources, as well as how to domesticate the local creatures and build a home. You will need to harness and control the magical energy that courses through the planet, or you risk being consumed by the looming darkness that permeates throughout the planet. Every aspect of Dark and Light has been re-imagined, re-worked, and upgraded from the 2004 original. Gaia’s very existence is dictated by primal elemental forces, including wind, earth, water, fire, light, and darkness.

The difficulty curve is gentle at first and then asks more of you, which felt right. There is more content here than the price suggests. I will be back for another run.

I bounced off it twice before finally giving up
I bounced off it twice before finally giving up. Fans of Action, Adventure, MMO will recognise the pieces, though Dark and Light never quite assembles them. The idea (Dark and Light is a vast sandbox survival RPG set in a world dominated by) is there, but the execution never catches up to it. It asks for a lot of grinding before the interesting parts show up. It runs well on a mid-range rig, though the later areas get busy. Wait for a deep sale.
