DEATH MARK Award-Winning Survival Horror Adventure Game Slithers onto Steam

Torrance, Calif. – Aksys Games is pleased to announce that the award-winning and critically-acclaimed horror adventure, Death Mark, is now available on Steam with a special 20% discount for the launch week. Created by Experience Inc., this full version of Death Mark features both the English and Japanese text, taking players on a visually stunning and intensely terrifying journey in which the wrong reaction can lead to a swift and sudden end.

A limited run Death Mark 12” vinyl original soundtrack album featuring 10 skin-crawling tracks is available now only at the Aksys Games store. Exclusive bundles of the vinyl album with the Limited Edition of Death Mark are also available for the PlayStation 4 system and Nintendo Switch for $69.99, and the PlayStation Vita system for $59.99. The LE Death Mark games include an exclusive 96-page full-color hardcover artbook, soundtrack CD, a temporary tattoo of the fatal Mark, and a dramatic, printed slipcase to entomb everything.
 
RPG Fan says,

“Death Mark [is] a quiet, slow-burning horror the likes of which we rarely see in favor of unrelenting, high octane scare-fests. Playing it alone in the dark with headphones on is incredibly affecting,” and God is a Geek adds, “while the artwork is pretty gorgeous across the board, the atmosphere with the sound design and the art blending together makes this truly shine.” 

Digitally Downloaded awarded Death Mark several honors, including Silver Medals for Best Narrative and Best New IP, saying,

“I rarely find games this compelling, intense, or smart.…Death Mark is a magnificent example of how a more literary approach to horror can really work within the context of a video game.”

Key Features:

  • Search and Survive! – To avoid an almost certain gruesome death at the “hands” of angry spirits, you’ll need to search your surroundings for clues to increase your odds of survival.
  • Ghost Busting – Sometimes the sword is more powerful than the pen. And when words fail it is time to stand your ground. Remember the price of not holding your own is an untimely death.
  • Riddle Me This – It’s not enough to defeat the spirit that cursed you, it must be done in the right way. If you don’t, you might survive but end up wishing you hadn’t. Be sure to parse all the clues and information you discover correctly to make your life continue to be worth living.

Death Mark is rated “M” for Mature.
