Black Sight

Overview

In Black Sight, you play as a scientist who is on a mission to cure their sick cat from a mysterious ailment. However, the only cure you know of is deep in the laboratory you once worked at, which is now abandoned after closing due to illegal mutation experimentation. The mutated creatures still roam the place, but you, with a hologram version of your cat at your side, head in to save your beloved fluffy friend. Switching between the main character and the cat, you will need to pass two out of three available locations to get to the final level and retrieve the cure. You will need to solve dangerous puzzles and avoid the enemies that lurk in the dark to advance.

How to play

Roam around the given area while solving varying puzzles such as memorizing and inserting codes, redirecting lasers, moving boxes, and finding keys to doors. While the player is solving these puzzles, they must be wary of the warden that is lurking in the area. The player will have to hide in safe places, avoid cameras and traps, and scout ahead with the cat to check if the warden is not there. To find out if the warden is nearby, players must shine their flashlight around the area for visibility as well as listen for certain threatening sound cues.
