The Light in the Darkness is a captivating role-playing game that takes players on an emotional journey through the dark times of the Nazi occupation of France during World War II. In this game, players take on the role of a Polish Jewish family living in Paris, experiencing the hardships and challenges they face as they try to survive in a world that is becoming increasingly hostile towards them.

Gameplay in The Light in the Darkness revolves around making choices and exploring the environment. Players will interact with various characters, engage in dialogue, and make decisions. The game's story is told through a mix of in-game events and documentary evidence, which adds a layer of authenticity to the experience.

The game also features a variety of simple mini-games, which help to break up the narrative and add variety to the gameplay.

One of the key features of The Light in the Darkness is its educational platform. Players will be able to access archives and photos, as well as explore history in a way that is designed to make Holocaust education accessible for all, including those who don't have the ability to visit museums.
