The Dark Legacy is a psychological horror game played from a first-person perspective, where you step into a decaying estate left behind by a man who believed death could be reversed. The house belonged to Dr. Victor Halberg, a once-celebrated brain surgeon who spiraled into obsession after the sudden death of his wife. Isolated from the world, he transformed his home into a hidden laboratory, where science crossed into madness and memory refused to fade. You are John Halberg, his estranged grandson. Broke and desperate, you return to claim your inheritance — a crumbling estate lost to time (Storyline via IGDB)
