A Dark Place is a first-person indie meta horror exploration game. It is the sequel to My Place and takes the gimmick of the first game- the ability to access your computer- even further, with much more crazy effects.
Taking place where the first game left off, the player finds themselves in yet another strange place, this time a garden of some sort with a tree in the middle. To escape, the player must go through the four doors and gather the music box within each door. But Nightmare is watching and will frequently chase the player, taking control of their computer so he can have his twisted fun.

. As with My Place, there is a free version and a paid version that includes many extras like a secret route to an alternate ending.
This game contains examples of:
- Big Bad: Nightmare is the entity that is corrupting the game and trapping the player inside, forcing them to gather the four music boxes to escape.
- Four Is Death: There are four doors leading to four levels and the four music boxes. Said levels are filled with the corruption of Nightmare.
- The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You: Much like the previous game, but even more so. Nightmare will repeatedly hijack your computer and mess with it in all sorts of ways.
- No Fourth Wall: Much like the previous game, Nightmare will directly communicate to the player.
