Through the Darkest of Times Game Reviews

Eerily good!. Handy Games and THQ Nordic have been on fire with releases like Lock’s Quest and Aces of Luftwaffe! Because of the consistency of quality, they have easily become one of my current favorite developers. With that being said, the purchase of Darkest Times was an automatic one for me. Most of Handy Games library consists of games that are uplifting to play. This game, however, is a bleak look into a nation that is turning to socialism. The eerie comparisons between what is happening in our country and what happened during the Nazi rise is what really sets the tone. Plans are to be made with your comrades in order to combat this new regime performing Marxism. But you must be careful. Nazi sympathizers come in all forms and can be closer than you know. I thoroughly enjoy playing this game...even when it gets stressful seeing your co-conspirators getting arrested.

This game is very fun and educational. I love this game already two days ago I got this game it’s very cool I think this is the best World War II game on the App Store

Wonderful game!. This is a great game. It teaches many lessons on many levels. It is very nice that the average person can play and finish this very interesting game. All people and countries should heed the clear warning: Pride goes before a fall.

Love the game; bad mechanics. I love everything about the game! It truly is amazing. But when planning missions it take 15-20 tries to hit either “confirm” or “cancel” because the buttons are so close to the selectable players. It’s extremely frustrating and almost makes it unplayable on mobile.

Important. Worth playing!. Interesting and very very difficult game. Very educational!

Ready to give up. I love the game but I cannot hit CONFIRM to start a mission. This is absurd!! Please fix and it’ll be 5 stars.

Great Game!!. Here’s the deal. This is genuinely a great game. I feel like they did a good job balancing out the difficulties with different events (risky + high reward vs low risk + average reward). It does give a sense of foreboading. The only problem i have with the game is that can sometimes be hard to move around the map. Sometimes I would try to click to drag/zoom out in the map and it cancels my actions so i have to start over again. Another thing I notice is that sometimes it prevents me from doing any action despite all requirement met. It’s not a requirement issue that I’m missing cause the whole screen freezes and i can’t even exit out of the event to refresh. So i have to close to whole app to start over. I also suggest adding a skip button for the transitions between each chapter. This is bc: again my screen freezes and sometimes i accidently press the menu button and it gets stuck therr DURING the transition sceens. And also sometimes i’m replaying the game and want to skipthe transitions. Honestly, this game iz wonderful. Lovely and charming artwork, a great idea for a game, andI enjoy living through historical events…but I think the controls need a bit of work bc sometimes it glitches and ends up frustrating me.

Great, I just ask a favor. Love the game, I have been playing it constantly since I downloaded it. My only gripe is there needs to be a way to skip the opening scenes and credits. It gets old after your 20th play through. Also there is a bug that prevents you from completing a mission involving passports. No support in 2 years it appears

Most important game on the App Store rn. I think this game should be included every school’s curriculum when covering WWII. Not only does it do a wonderful job of teaching history, but it connects you to it in a way that textbooks fail to. Without ever displaying a single swastika, the creators were able to characterize the sheer terror that was spread across Germany when Hitler became chancellor, and eventually the world. You really feel for these characters. You see just how quickly everything changed for so many people. You see how quickly things are capable of changing now. Seriously, support this game. The knowledge it provides is priceless, and the experience you’ll have in playing it will stick with you for a lifetime.

Love it. Incredible, and a fun way to learn history.

Brilliant. This masterpiece doesn’t seem to have gotten nearly the attention it deserves. Far from just being a history lesson, it’s a deep and addictive strategy game. There are interesting decisions to make about risk versus reward and making the most of your characters’ strengths. It’s difficult but not too difficult. The gameplay seamlessly integrates with a story that illustrates everyday life at the time.

Goddamn Wonderful Story, although issues with game mechanics.. First things first— The story portion of the game is amazing, and really hits home the tragedy of the nazis, and it had me on the edge of my seat the whole time and really hit hard. Just simply wonderful, and the little moments present encapsulated a horror not easily understood with just detailed knowledge. Even though I am a WW2 Buff (made the mistake of reading a portion of the nightmarish Nuremberg Trial testimony) and have read a lot into Nazis and their awfulness, as well as have family who have suffered from the Holocaust, the story hit home like almost nothing else. With that said, the resistance mission portion of the game felt rather unpolished and unclear, and a lot of things didn’t make sense (ie actions from one time period don’t affect another, people get into disputes on missions way too much, you have a hard limit of five agents, and it is almost comically easy to save your agents from the SA prisons and interrogation areas whereas it can be very difficult to do something such as have an anonymous interview with a journalist in 1936). There also isn’t a lot of replay ability. With that said, it is still somewhat good as a game and the story makes up for a lot of it.

Horrendous controls ruin a great game. The accuracy of the touch controls and the fact that you have to drag everything, and the map itself, make this fun game a total pain to play. What a waste.

Worth the money. Amazing game! One of its kind
