The Darkness at the Brink of Ohio is a solo horror journaling game with a soundtrack. It's about a local radio show in the surrounding area of Akron, Ohio that was heard across the state before it happened. DJ Mike from 106.6 The Brink was doing his late night show when something strange took over, causing a terrible event to befall its listeners.

You are playing one of the listeners who was working the late night shift. You are documenting your work in a journal while hearing DJ Mike undergo his transformation into something beyond this realm. This game uses a soundtrack for you to listen to while you journal and answer prompts.

The major themes of this game are parasocial relationships and hypervisibility within a small fanbase.
