Gloomy Eyes - The Game is a dark and poetic narrative puzzle game adapted from the VR experience of the same name.

Gloomy Eyes - The Game is not a VR game.

Within a world where the sun has stopped rising, the darkness awoke the dead from their graves, and an oppressive leader has cast them out. Play Gloomy and Nena, a zombie and a human , on a quest to find the sun in this dark but poetic narrative puzzle game.

Adapted from the eponymous awarded VR experience, Gloomy Eyes - The Game is a game set in a dark world shaken by the conflict between the living and the dead, telling a peculiar story about love and difference.

You play alternately Gloomy, a mysterious zombie child and Nena, a human girl. They quickly fall for each other, despite Nena’s uncle being the leader of the zombie hunters, and depart on a quest to bring warmth back in these forsaken lands. Using Gloomy and Nena’s unique abilities, solve smart puzzles and help them on their quest to find the sun and make it rise again.

Gloomy Eyes - The Game tells a poignant tale of tenderness and keeps the player close to these atypical lovers trying to bring brightness back to the world, despite fear, conflict and hostility.


Adrien Larouzée, Head of Digital Project Management & Video Games Co-Productions & Publishing Activities Manager: "The announcement of Gloomy Eyes - The Game is a testament to ARTE's investment in the world of independent video games. With its surprising artistic universe, innovative and accessible gameplay, and moving story, ARTE's editorial strategy is in full swing."

Navigate beautiful dioramas carefully crafted with a unique, breathtaking art direction inherited from the acclaimed virtual reality experience that won the best VR movie award at the Festival international du film d'animation d'Annecy in 2019.

Key Features:

  • Play alternately Nena and Gloomy, each one with unique skills
  • A dark and fantastic world
  • Creative and smart puzzles
  • A tender tale about loneliness, difference and love
