Shining in the Darkness Game
Shining in the Darkness is a classic dungeon-crawling RPG that kicked off SEGA’s beloved Shining series back in 1991—and it’s still a gem for fans of old-school adventure. Picture this: you’re leading a party of heroes through a labyrinthine dungeon filled with traps, monsters, and secrets, all while navigating in first-person (a rarity at the time!). The turn-based combat is simple but satisfying, and the moody atmosphere—complete with eerie music and a story of royal kidnappings and ancient curses—gives it that perfect retro fantasy charm.
What makes it stand out? It’s a tough-but-fair grind with a rewarding sense of progression, and it laid the groundwork for later hits like Shining Force. If you love dungeon RPGs with a nostalgic SEGA twist—or just want to see where the series began—this one’s a must-play. Just don’t forget to map those corridors… unless you enjoy getting lost in the dark!
