Evaluation

Dark Scavenger launched on May 16, 2014 as a complete point-and-click RPG. After release, the developer shipped a Linux port on September 19, 2014 and performed some bug fixes — no major expansions or additional content were ever added to the game itself. The studio's only other major post-launch milestone was the release of a separate game, Mike Dies, in February 2018. On January 27, 2023, Psydra Games LLC formally announced the closure of the studio, noting that ownership of Dark Scavenger would be transferred to a new owner. This is the last official communication about the game. With the original developer shut down and no post-launch content history beyond early patches, the game is complete as originally shipped. It remains purchasable on Steam under the new ownership arrangement described in the closure notice.
