[Downloadable Game] Deep within the mysterious corridors of 12 unearthly labyrinths, a dark force is spreading. Countless enemies lie in wait, hidden within the swirling shadows of an all-encompassing mist, eager to destroy all who dare seek a path to the exit. Take control of Artemis, ancient goddess of the moon, in a quest to cast light upon the darkest corners of each dangerous maze. Fire arrows of pure light at deadly foes, search the depths with a magical glowing bow, activate enchanted lamps and collect secret keys on a path of enlightenment. Download Dark Mist and all will be illuminated. Rise to the top of the online leaderboards in three modes: Time Attack, Hunting and Endless. Play Time Attack and try and clear each stage within a set time limit. Unlock Hard Mode to take on an exclusive boss character. [Sony Computer Entertainment Europe]

That it achieves a balance between challenge and a sense of progress is one thing, that it manages to fizz with a wealth of lighting, crisp colours and instructive sound design helps cement one of the strongest PSN offering since ?true? twin-stick shooters Everyday Shooter and upper Stardust HD.

Our only gripe is that it gets repetitive fast. [May 2008, p.78]

This is a fun game if you're looking for some uncompromised action, exploring dungeons, searching for keys and shooting anything that moves.

With no level-select, and hugely repetitive gameplay, Dark Mist quickly loses its appeal and feels like a shallow exercise in retro-headed bloody-mindedness rather than a loving link to the past.

Dark Mist leaves us a weird feeling. In one way the game is quite fun and addictive to go through the dungeons and shoot all kinds of enemies down. On the other hand the game doesn't go further then that. The Endbosses are a challenge, but the other monsters aren't special at all. This makes the game linear and more of the same during the whole game.

In the end, Dark Mist does what it aimed to do: revive the high-score. However, it may not appeal shooter fans that are used to the convenience of save games.

Dark Mist would be a good budget shooter if it weren't hampered by its lack of in-game saves and a tedious amount of Sixaxis shaking. [Issue#164, p.88]
