A supernatural spectacular.

Death Mark's developer Experience has an odd history of creating games for what could charitably be called the "wrong" formats; putting out great dungeon crawlers (Stranger of Sword City and Operation Abyss: New Tokyo Legacy, for example) for relative underdogs like the Vita and Xbox One. Death Mark is something of a shift for the company in many ways; it's their first horror game, their first adventure, and their first title to come to the Switch – but was it worth the wait?
