Darkness Within 2: The Dark Lineage is a 2010 first-person 3D adventure – horror thriller video game. It is the second in an expected series of three games, with Darkness Within: In Pursuit of Loath Nolder being the first. Darkness Within is a series of adventure games inspired by famous horror writer H.P. Lovecraft.
Players again take the role of police detective Howard Loreid, who suffered from the paranormal happenings around him in the first game, "In Pursuit of Loath Nolder". Now, Howard discovers that his own horrible past is connected with the madness that is about to swallow him. This second volume sees the Darkness Within saga come to its unsettling conclusion.
Unlike its predecessor, which utilized a traditional Myst style of movement, this game uses a first-person perspective similar to that of most first-person shooters.
