Shadowdark, the original fantasy in a modern role-playing game!

Shadowdark is the original fantasy role-playing game reimagined to let you play better than ever before.

In Shadowdark, you play as a group of underground scavengers willing to risk their lives in forgotten ruins, lost cities, and monster-teeming depths. Armed with steel, spells and cunning, you must face deadly perils to uncover fabulous treasures and secrets that time itself has wanted to erase.

But beware! Here, light is your most precious resource. Without it, you'll end up engulfed by the Nightshade and its horrific perils.

It's a perfect blend of modern and classic. Fast, elegant and intuitive! Fearsome monsters, mythical spells, and incredible treasures await adventurers who have the guts to seek them out.
Do you dare to snatch your destiny from the clutches of death itself? Wield your sword, light your torch, and dive into the unknown depths of the Nightshade!
