Tokyo Dark

Published by the Square Enix Collective, Tokyo Dark is a point and click horror adventure game developed by Japanese studio Cherrymochi. I wrote the game’s dialogue together with the game’s director, and was heavily involved in the creative process. Tokyo Dark was released to critical success in 2017 and is now available on PC and other major consoles.

Our goal was to create an anime-inspired point and click story that delved into the dark, real-world underbelly of Tokyo. Writing the game, I drew on my many experiences from living in Tokyo along with extensive research into the Japanese police system, cults, and more.
