Jul 25, 2022Eyes in the Dark: The Curious Case of One Victoria Bloom delivers a fun, laid-back, aesthetically pleasing roguelite experience that rewards players for both precise gameplay and clever use of the game’s upgrade system. For the small price of $15, what’s not to love?

Aug 30, 2022Despite some minor setbacks, Eyes in the Dark holds a lot of charm and fun. Each run may take a little longer, but that time flies by — despite the simplicity of the enemies and difficulty. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and there is much to see with Eyes in the Dark.

Jul 12, 2022Eyes in the Dark doesn’t exactly reinvent roguelikes or twin stick shooters so much as it simply takes good parts of those things and ties it up neatly in a darkly humored style, both charming and creepy.

Jul 21, 2022There is a line, an imaginary line that crosses the process of creation. The aim of the creator is to stop right on that boundary. Stopping too soon would mean a lack of faith in the project; too late, an excess of confidence. Eyes in the Dark was so close to stopping on that line, but it has indeed overshot it, even if not that much. This doesn't mean that the work of the Under The Stairs team isn't worth a dime. The complete opposite. Their aim has to be adjusted, but the track is the right one.

Jul 29, 2022Eyes in the Dark is a small but feisty mix of a roguelite and a 2D platformer. It’s atmosphere, art style and engaging gameplay make up for the lack of originality and not the best controls (controller highly recommended!).

Jul 12, 2022If you enjoy Eyes in the Dark's premise and time-bending story as well as the rewarding randomness of the genre, you'll have much more to do after your first run is finished.
