About the Game

In Nocturn, you play as a hero tasked to protect his villagers and save the world from eternal darkness.

Gather resources, rebuild your outpost, and manage your villagers to assure your survival.

You'll have to survive numerous assaults on your outpost, with a real-time fighting system where staying sharp will assure your victory.

Darkness will be your greatest enemy. You'll have to make sure you have enough light to prevent your villagers from turning into hostile creatures, but you can exile one of your villagers if he becomes a danger. But will his missing be a good thing, or a bad thing?

  • Different heroes with active and passive abilities, changing your way to play

  • Random events each day, assuring a different run every time

  • A medieval dark fantasy style

  • Real-time fight requiring being active throughout the entire thing

  • Sickness system evolving with your resources. You'll have to make choices between risking a mutation and gathering more resources, or get rid of a sick villager to make sure no one will die
