While there aren’t too many details yet, Rajan shared a few of his plans on Twitter today. Rajan is planning a local co-op feature that will allow one player to manage the town while the other player can head out and explore. Aesthetically speaking, the game will also look a bit different than the browser and mobile versions of the game, with an “old school GameBoy aesthetic” .

If you haven’t played it yet, A Dark Room is a text-based adventure game that sees you awakening in, well, a dark room. Your only instruction is to light a fire. Doing so unfurls a whole chain of events that leads down some truly fascinating paths.

A Dark Room will be available on the eShop sometime in the future. You can play it right now in your browser or on iOS and Android.
