Dark Shadows - Army of Evil

Rating: 6.5/10 Dark Shadows - Army of Evil is an action RPG with hack-and-slash combat and a dark fantasy setting where players fight through waves of enemies and progressively stronger bosses. The game offers straightforward combat and a basic upgrade system that makes progression feel rewarding at first. However, it lacks depth in gameplay variety, and repetition sets in fairly quickly. The presentation is also quite simple compared to more modern action RPGs. A decent casual hack-and-slash experience, but limited in long-term appeal. 6.5/10.

Wow. Just wow. I decided to wait until I'd fully beaten this game before writing a review. What a masterpiece. It is a perfect lesson on exactly how not to design a game in a year that starts with a 2. Genuinely, buy this game if you or a friend is into game design. Between the meth bunny double-fall jumping and the hilarious combat animations/sound (EEAUUYGHHH) design on the spinning heavy attacks, it's mechanically flawless. The story is simple, but a classic. While you were chasing a runaway... I'll say horse, but that's not what it sounds like- monsters attacked the castle and killed everyone and kidnapped the princess Katerina who you are in love with. But don't worry, they're not actually monsters, they are just in disguise. Then you get to kill them. Kill them all. Over and over and over. In fact, you not only get to, but have to kill all of them, every single level. The graphics are a bit disappointing for a game that was released after Oblivion, but the combat and enemy AI more than doesn't make up for this. Enemy design is a bit lacking, since mechanically there is exactly one design, but that's okay because it's reskinned in like 5 ways. Actually maybe the shield on…

Dark Shadows – Army of Evil is a first-person fantasy action game developed by Burian Media Enterprises and published by Volens Nolens Games. The game draws inspiration from early 3D dungeon crawlers and classic hack-and-slash adventures, presenting a straightforward medieval story driven by combat and exploration. Built as a small independent project, it attempts to recreate the atmosphere of older fantasy action titles where the player advances through hostile environments, collects weapons, and battles waves of enemies in a quest for revenge and rescue. While the concept follows familiar fantasy conventions, the game’s retro design and simple mechanics aim to appeal to players nostalgic for early first-person adventure games. The story takes place in a medieval kingdom during a time of chaos and invasion. A mysterious and brutal faction known as the Dark Shadows has been terrorizing the land for months, spreading destruction across villages and threatening the stability of the kingdom.
