Burton-on-Trent, UK – 18th September, 2025. Publisher Playtonic Friends and developer MegaWobble are bouncing with excitement as they reveal a brand-new gameplay trailer for Lil Gator Game: In the Dark, a huge expansion for the much-loved whimsical adventure Lil Gator Game.

Twice the Adventure, Twice the Fun
Lil Gator's next journey is their biggest yet! In the Dark doubles the size of the original game, introducing a massive underground world full of hidden nooks, secret treasures, and plenty of new pals to meet. Cozy cave tunnels glow with lightsticks, mysterious caverns hide surprises, and every crevasse has a new friend waiting to help out on your adventure.
You'll definitely want to "cave in" to the fun!
New Faces, New Challenges
It wouldn't be a proper Lil Gator adventure without a few quests to complete and new friendships to forge, but this time, there are some unexpected frenemies to deal with. A group of moody teenage troublemakers are threatening to spoil the fun... and only Lil Gator's boundless optimism might be enough to win them over.
Gear Up for New Moves
Exploring underground comes with some brand-new toys to play with. From gymnastic ribbons that give you a double jump, to new items that let you slam down on cardboard crooks, Lil Gator's toolset is growing as much as their world.
Lil Gator Game: In the Dark is a heartwarming, family-friendly adventure, and a cosy conclusion to Lil Gator's epic story.
