About Volunteer to the Darkness

With shooting games, the stories tend to float between the super serious and the ridiculous. This game is definitely in the former category where the stakes are incredibly high. This means that the pressure is on and you don’t know what’s waiting for you in each mission. Everything is dangerous and all of your tasks need to be completed while at the same time you’re trying to stay alive. Jose is ready to fight for everything, but you need to be ready to help him take his risks wisely. If not, there’ll be no returning to any sort of life.

How to Play

Volunteer to the Darkness is a 3D first-person shooter about a man completing missions to save his wife with the mouse and keyboard.

The goal is to complete missions as quickly as possible. Your health is shown in the bottom left corner of the screen and your ammo is in the bottom right corenr. If your health ever drops to zero, you’ll need to retry the mission.

After the story clues you into the situation, Jose will be deployed on his first mission. Each mission will come with instructions as to what you need to do. When you spawn in, Jose will need to start exploring the area. As you do, you’ll encounter enemy soldiers who have been instructed to shoot on sight. If Jose gets shot, he’ll take damage, but his health will start regenerating after a few seconds. You’ll start with two weapons, but you can find others while exploring the area. Keep fighting and pushing to reach all the points of interest and accomplish your mission.

Tips and Tricks

As a shooter game, you need to observe your surroundings and always be ready to fire back. Move quickly but discreetly through areas and have obstacles to serve as cover should enemies ambush you. If you do get fired at from offscreen, don’t panic, quickly get to cover, and locate your targets.
