What is The Dark Pursuer?
Trapped in an abandoned place with a monster, you search for clues and try to escape. This first-person survival horror game has three selectable levels: an abandoned hospital, a remote field, and old tunnels. You avoid the monster in solo play, while multiplayer pits one survivor against a friend controlling the creature.
For you if...
- +you want cross-platform matches with a friend on mobile
Not for you if...
- −you want cooperative survival rather than opposing player roles
