Tokyo Dark is a 2D point & click adventure game, a twisting detective story featuring a multitude of choices, non-linear puzzle-solving, and a deep branching narrative exploring the darker underbelly of Tokyo.

Deep under Tokyo’s streets there exists a hidden door – and anybody who goes through the door is gone forever. That’s the urban legend at the heart of Tokyo Dark’s narrative adventure. Guide Detective It ō as she tries to find her missing partner, and make meaningful choices along the way which will shape the way your story unfolds in this side-scrolling RPG, influenced by a mix of Japanese anime and Western point-and-click adventures.

Tokyo Dark is a sidescrolling point and click mystery adventure game. As detective Itō you'll explore Tokyo, talk to many characters, collect clues, solve puzzles and make difficult decisions with far reaching consequences.

Cherrymochi Game Studio has launched a kickstarter campaign, looking for CAD 40,000, to complete the development of Tokyo Dark. Additional stretch goals planned to add extra content and features to the game.

”Working with the Square Enix Collective has been a fantastic opportunity for us,” said Cherrymochi creative director Jon Williams. “We've found that Square Enix's community really share our passion for interesting characters with original stories to tell, so we're looking forward to introducing detective Itō to a wide audience and shining a light on what she finds in the shadows of Tokyo.” 

Tokyo Dark has been one of the most eagerly-anticipated and well-supported projects to feature on the Collective platform to-date, so I’m really pleased we’re working with the Cherrymochi team to help make this game a reality,” added Collective creator and project lead, Phil Elliott.
