Survive the Hex. Build the Town. Push Back the Dark.

Dark Cell is a co-op survival game built around fast decisions, dangerous expeditions, and a persistent town. Scout hexes, secure resources, craft upgrades, and coordinate with other survivors to hold the line.

Expeditions happen in a living hex world. Every move spends time — and time makes noise.

What you’ll do

A tight loop: prepare in town, push into the dark, return with what you can carry. Long-term progress comes from smart coordination and hard choices.

Explore

Chart a hex world full of ruins, anomalies, and threats. Choose routes that keep you alive.

Scavenge

Gather materials and relics — but every expedition has a cost. Bring back what matters.

Build

Upgrade the town with infrastructure, defenses, and research that change how your group plays.

Craft & specialize

Develop loadouts, perks, and roles. Your kit should match the danger you’re walking into.

Coordinate

Work together in a persistent community. Share intel, plan routes, and protect each other.

Endure

The map is hostile and the dark adapts. Learn the patterns, manage risk, and survive longer.

FAQ

Is this playable in a browser?

Yes — it runs as a web game. Click Play, create an account, and you’re in.

Do I need friends to start?

No. You can start solo to learn the loop, then coordinate with others as you go.

What’s the core loop?

Prepare in town → expedition into hexes → extract with resources → upgrade town → repeat with higher stakes.

Is there permadeath?

Expect risk and consequences. Some progress is persistent (town), while expeditions can go very wrong.

Town Tribunal

How tribunal evidence and voting works
  • Evidence is snapshotted when a tribunal opens, so votes are based on a frozen incident bundle instead of mutable live logs.
  • Only eligible active town members can vote. The accused player is excluded from the voter list captured at tribunal start.
  • Banishment requires quorum, a supermajority of counted votes, and a minimum number of Agree votes.

Report a player

Reports are anonymous. Enough reports will start a vote.

Active votes

When a tribunal starts, vote Agree / Disagree / Abstain here.
