Detailed Description
The Tree Provides, The Tree Protects, The Tree Prevails!
DarkSwitch is a vertical survival city builder set in the boughs of a gigantic tree. Defend your leafy home against the perils of the creeping fog by managing light and flame.

Navigate a stunning, dangerous, dark fantasy world enriched by cinematic cutscenes and an atmospheric soundtrack from Silent Hill composer Akira Yamaoka!
Build your city upwards, utilizing both trunk and bough.
Limited horizontal space requires a strategy; construct zip lines and stairways to connect your growing settlement layers.
Manage raw and processed resources, production facilities, and citizen morale, while fortifying defenses to withstand fog's creeping chaos.
Fog drives your citizens to madness and conceals stalking terrors.
Fight back by illuminating paths, crafting light-powered weapons, and mastering the raw energy of Solium.
Push back the gloom and save your nation.
Send scout detachments into the misty unknown to chart new airship routes.
Establish far-outposts, and excavate rare resources and artifacts.
Encounter strange and lethal creatures lurking in the fog.
Uncover the remnants of an ancient civilization.
Shape your citizens' destiny through morally complex decisions.
Witness various dramatic storylines.

80+ unique buildings for full tree city customization.
11 resource types: balance raw and processed goods to survive.
