About the Game

An immersive adventure set in a beautiful 3D pixel art fantasy world. Slay the evil assaulting the kingdom and reclaim your royal birthright from an evil wizard who has stolen the realm. Each playthrough he has different powerful relics that shape the world and how you defeat him.

Features

  • Each playthrough is different based on which relics the wizard selects at the start of each game. These relics procedurally change the obstacles you face, the appearance of the world, and what enemies you have to fight to reach his castle and defeat him. If you fail, your character dies and must restart from the beginning.

  • Retro-inspired advanced 3D pixel art style

  • First person exploration and combat

  • Beautiful original soundtrack

  • Atmospheric fantasy world to explore and die in

Can you slay the dark?
