Our take on As Dusk Falls
The focus on narrative choices and group voting leaves little room for action-led play. Its two-book, decades-spanning story also asks for sustained attention rather than a compact standalone episode.
What is As Dusk Falls?
This interactive drama follows two families whose lives become connected over three decades, beginning with a robbery gone wrong in a small Arizona town in 1998.
The story is divided into two books and follows multiple characters through relationships and family conflicts. Decisions affect character fates, while replaying the story can reveal different outcomes and details behind earlier choices. The presentation combines digitally rendered actors with an art style described as a motion graphic novel. Cooperative play supports up to 8 players locally, online, or in a mix of both. Players can vote on choices using the companion app on a phone or tablet.
