Darken

Darken is a first-person RPG adventure game currently in development by  a  solo developer. Inspired by classic titles like King's Field and Daggerfall, Darken brings back the old-school RPG feel, blending immersive exploration, punishing strategic combat, and deep character progression.

Venture through the dark depths of the Cave of Anguish, where every step could be your last. Unearth hidden treasures, face deadly hordes of the undead, and wield powerful abilities as you carve your own path. The choices you make will shape your journey, but be warned: the difficulty in Darken is unforgiving.

With hand-crafted environments and a nostalgic atmosphere, this demo offers a glimpse into a forgotten era of gaming.
