About the Game

DarkShine is an open world game in classic graphic style where you will meet a former soldier who left the war to save his life and settled in a small but progressive village “Gudwine” that lived a peaceful life, until one day an evil in white armor destroyed their peaceful life. In this game you have the opportunity to develop by running errands for people, earn money for decent equipment, improve this equipment, do farming in your free time and even get your own ship, immediately going to sea on it as a deliveryman of goods between ports. And of course don't forget to save the world along the way, as the Capital is already surrounded by a white army. Where to look for adventure depends only on you. But evil never sleeps, so evolve to fight back when the time comes, find out the main secret of the Shadow or forever be stuck in the loop trying again and again.
