About Dark and Deep
Step into the shoes of Samuel Judge, an underachieving IT worker and the #1 fan of the titular conspiracy podcast, “Dark and Deep”. Tired of his station in life and yearning for better opportunities, Sam attempts to defraud the company he works for, but is quickly caught up in a paranormal conspiracy that threatens to unravel everything.
Finding himself stranded in a mysterious otherworld, and hunted by the unspeakable terrors that call this new reality home, Sam must utilize mystically empowered frames to reveal the hidden horrors hunting him, harnessing the power of ancient supernatural machines to navigate the darkness. He rediscovers secrets about his own past through vivid visions, unexplainable phenomena, and snippets of his favourite pulpy conspiracy podcast that forces him to confront dark questions what is fact or fiction on his journey.
