About this game
DarkHood is a free browser platform adventure where the only light in the dark comes from your own glowing aura. You guide a brave boy in a black hoodie through candle-lit caves, past sleeping monsters and along hidden passages that twist deeper into the rock. Each level asks you to gather every glowing gem, dodge bombs, pits and traps, and reach the exit gate to move on.
The game runs straight in your browser with no download or installation needed. Levels are kept short, so it fits well into a quiet moment at home or a few minutes on the go. Since your aura is the only source of light, you have to keep an eye on every step you take, especially in the darker passages.
With responsive controls and a simple, moody look, DarkHood is easy to pick up for anyone who enjoys arcade-style platformers. The more gems you collect along the way, the more rewarding each level becomes to finish.
