1. The Dark Room is the world’s only live-action videogame.

And definitely the only live-action videogame to become an actual videogame, a touring live show, and a streaming sensation notorious for its anarchic 50 hour marathon charity shows.

“NOT TO BE MISSED” The Guardian

2. Interactive and insane, this is improv comedy + retro gaming fused into a deranged heavy metal game show.

★★★★★ “Everyone should see The Dark Room at least once in their lives… one of the best and most enjoyable evenings you can have” Scottish Sun

3. Here’s what John said in VICE Magazine (https://www.vice.com/en_uk/read/what-ive-learned-from-being-a-live-action-video-game-456?utm_source=vicegamingtwitter) and Starburst. (http://www.starburstmagazine.com/features/interviews/12559-john-robertson-interview)

4. Touring since 2012, The Dark Room has appeared to crowds ranging from 50 – 4000 people at Glastonbury Festival, PAX East, PAX West, PAX Australia, Worldcon, UK Games Expo, EGX, MCM, Soho Theatre, Download Festival, Runefest, sold out repeatedly at the Edinburgh Fringe and in theatres around the UK, Australia and Europe, with U.S dates planned for 2025.
