Description
Dark Seed is an adventure game which capitalizes on the drawings of famous horror designer
H. R. Giger as a source of background artwork and inspiration.
You play Mike Dawson, an ad company manager who, in pursuit of his goal in life to become a writer, purchases a solitary mansion in a small town called Woodland Hills. Although the low cost and hush-hush transactions when purchasing the house do raise your suspicion, the solitary environment and sheer beauty of the house crush common sense and you decide to buy the house. That's when trouble begin. Upon reaching the house, you suddenly feel tired. You find a bed and fall asleep...
... and wake up from a terrible dream, only to find out that your life has just become a worse nightmare: an unknown source has implanted a seed of darkness in your mind, and you only have three days to find a way to stop it.

Trivia
Not only the name of the main character, Mike Dawson, refers to (a member of)
Cyberdreams:
Mike Dawson lives, according to the manual, in an old Victorian house on Ventura Drive, Woodland Hills. The first office of Cyberdreams was located at 21243 Ventura Boulevard, Woodland Hills. Moreover, that’s the same address as printed on Delbert’s business card, Mike’s neighbor in the game.
The store in the game is called "Klug’s Food Market".
Rolf Klug was the owner of Cyberdreams (so he provided “the food”).
The clue on the microfiche card that you examine in the library on day 3 is signed by Ryan Ketchum.
Pat(rick) Ketchum was the President of Cyberdreams.
However, Pat gets his own signature. The cracked mirror note in the DOS version is signed by Timothy, but in the Amiga CD-32 version it is signed by Pat.
