Description
I present a phenomenological, data-centered and data-driven assessment of the status of indirect and direct searches for particle Dark Matter, and of the main implications for DM model building. Tantalizing hints and stringent constraints seem to continuosly chase each other, as a number of well performing experiments keep delivering their data. This year may be the one in which we finally see the resolution of these dark puzzles, or it may not.
