About the Game



In the world of Dark facets, you will play the role of Elterion, a dark magician who challenged the Elingard Empire torn by civil war. Go through the path of becoming a dark lord, making decisions that have consequences. Build fortifications and your citadel, manage resources and send warriors to attack, supporting them with dark magic.

Unique storyline

  • Immerse yourself in a dark story, where your decisions change the twists of the plot and the relationships of the characters.

Unusual mechanics

  • Dynamically changing weather and time of day that affect the gameplay.
  • Administration of the occupied regions by the dark magician Elterion for their prosperity. At your request, the resources obtained in battles can be used to supply your troops or to develop the territories under your control.
  • Buildings, some of which need workers.
  • Various classes of warriors with their own characteristics of fighting. As in any war, in the confrontation between Elterion and the Elingard Empire, real Heroes sometimes appear among ordinary recruits who can change the course of an entire battle.
  • Scouts have always been a special kind of troops, because they are able not only to transmit valuable information to you, but also to sabotage behind enemy lines.
  • Magic spells, each of which has its own purpose and gives the opportunity to choose their own tactics of fighting.
  • Not enough resources? Exchange your resources with a merchant if he deigns to come to you.
This and much more is waiting for you on a variety of battlefields, where you will command your dark army, looking at the world of Dark facets from the dark side. However... are the enemies so holy and blameless?
