March 21, 2022– Retro-indie games publisher Bitmap Soft announced that the pre-order window for the physical cartridge of In the Dark, for the Nintendo Game Boy Color, is going live today.
In the Dark is a brain-teasing assembly of puzzles where there is but one goal – turn off all of the lights. Each light when turned on or off will flip the states of the ones around it.
If you love retro puzzle games, In the Dark is set in a cruiser-class ship orbiting a barren planet in the Rigel system. Investigate an unidentified distress signal with Ikalo Pann, the Captain of the Star Leviathan by navigating through the debris surrounding the derelict ship.
Solve the puzzles to bypass the locks, before the backup power drains. Enjoy 3-5 hours of gameplay with over 500 puzzle combinations.

A Story Mode with 100 progressively harder curated puzzles.
With over 500 possible puzzle combinations, Random Mode offers countless hours of casual puzzling fun
Unlockable Palette Variants.
