At first, it\u2019s easy enough with you having to deal only with smallish items. But before long you\u2019re faced with squeezing in tents, barbecues and even (presumably not terribly happy) dogs. The game that spawned a sub-genre, Canabalt always had an edge subsequent endless runners lacked. Maybe it was the terrifying dystopia a lone figure is fleeing from, all grey landscapes and strange machinery stomping around in the background. Perhaps it\u2019s the soundtrack, pumping the game full of urgency. Coming from the same developer as Gridland (also in this list) and supplying a similar \u2018thrive \u2018n\u2019 survive\u2019 challenge, A Dark Room nevertheless takes a very different tack. It\u2019s a text- and menu-driven adventure in which you build up and maintain a successful community in a harsh wilderness. Logistics and supply management are as important as surviving animal attacks, and the adventure can be long and gruelling.<\/p>\n
