Players take on the roles of investigators trying to escape from an adversary who is secretly moving around the board, trying to stop them.

As the game unfolds, investigators must decide whether to stick together for safety or split up to reach the exit quickly, all while managing their stamina and resources. With multiple possible win conditions and a variety of investigators and adversaries to choose from, each game of The Stifling Dark is a new and exciting challenge. Will the investigators escape, or will the adversary catch them - there's only one way to find out.
