Dark Cross is a third-person survival horror game set in the decaying corridors of Echo Deep , a sealed military research facility lost to time and tragedy. Sent in to recover classified experimental data, you quickly discover you're not alone—something hostile still roams the dark. Choose how to survive. Light and sound draw danger, but the choice is yours: sneak past threats, distract them, or use limited tools to create breathing room. Explore a massive nonlinear level, uncover buried secrets, and collect hidden vials to piece together what went wrong—and what Subject H-9 has become. Key Features Third-Person Survival Horror Navigate from a third-person perspective with full control of your camera and surroundings—balance visibility with vulnerability. Multiple Paths to Survival Every encounter can be handled in different ways: avoid, distract, or confront with rare, high-risk tools. Adapt your approach to the situation. Light and Sound Matter s Enemies are drawn to what they can hear and see. Hold your breath, and listen carefully to survive. Persistent World All 8 DNA vials must be found to unlock the full truth. Their positions stay constant—even across deaths—but finding them is only part of the challenge. Atmospheric Minimalism No HUD. No handholding. Just the sound of your footsteps, flickering lights, and something hunting in the dark. Dark Cross is an intense, replayable horror experience built around environmental tension, non-linear exploration, and player choice in the face of overwhelming odds.
