Dark Shadows - Army of Evil

i would rather take 2000 mgs of ibuprofen on an empty stomach than play this

Dark Shadows - Army of Evil ходячее клише всего плохого в инди-разработке. Ужасная графика, которую оправдывают олдскульностью, деревянное управление, примитивный бой и сюжет на уровне любительской сказки. Первая же миссия это адский квест по сбору ключей, который отобьёт желание играть даже у самого терпеливого. Потраченного времени не жалко, жалко нервных клеток.

My friend who i play CS:GO with said if i post a review on this game and it gets 200 likes and 200 awards that he will buy me a RTX 3060 and 2 kilos of canned ham. So i'm just gonna leave this here. Help a brotha

I don't know why someone saw this, played it, and said, "Yeah, this is a completed product. We did well!" It's an unfinished, buggy, broken, dull, wannabe RPG. Avoid.

Não é ruim, mas também não é bom. Isso depende da visão, mas distrair está ótimo

sürekli çöküyor oyun oynatmıyor, ağır optmz. sorunları var

this game is so ass, do not buy it, i refunded my 49 cents

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.

This epic strategy battle lets you command an army of dark forces against overwhelming odds 🛡️⚔️! Unleash spells, conquer realms, and outmaneuver foes in thrilling campaigns. Stunning visuals and addictive tactics make every victory unforgettable. A must-play for strategy fans! 👹

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 ones can block or something but I don't think so? There is similar variety in the 17 (?) weapons you get, which, while all having effectively the same moveset (except the bows) do drastically not different amounts of damage as far as I can tell. Unironically, the music that plays when this game crashes is by far the best aspect of the game, which is good because it crashes. A lot. (To be clear, neither part of this statement is a joke) Sometimes enemies take a quick trip to the shadow realm (generally through the wall from what I've seen), which makes levels unbeatable unless you load a save. Standing on a rock breaks the enemy AI and they start doing the happy dance shuffle around the rock until you kill them or hop down. Sometimes the epic amazing kill-cam shots will fire and an enemy will sit down violently and raspberry jam will come exploding out. I think I have to actually talk about the game. The first level is a weird puzzle where you have to climb on a hidden ledge, the existence of which isn't entirely obvious. You then find a stick to make a torch. You then search a castle for a key to find another key to find a sword. Then for the next 16 levels, you kill every enemy. You also pick up a new weapon which doesn't actually do anything new, but sure. Occasionally you have to find a key or wait a few minutes for lightning to strike a tree to knock it over to make a bridge (spoilers I guess?). Then on level 18, there are multiple puzzles you interact with and on level 19, and amazing epic boss fight that is mechanically different than all of the previous fights (because you need to stand on an extra tall item to cheese it). To be serious for a moment, the game is bad. It is poorly designed, and seems to be inspired by the worst aspects of old dungeon crawlers or hack-n-slashes, with little understanding or inclusion of the aspects that made them enjoyable. I would liken this to The Room of games. If you go into this expecting a good game, you will be sorely disappointed. If you go in expecting a game that is bad, but in a very funny way, you might enjoy yourself for a bit. I'd really recommend playing it with friends and probably alcohol (it doesn't have multiplayer, I mean sitting around and keeping count of the enemies you've killed so you'll know if you miss one). I do genuinely recommend getting this game when it's on sale for 50¢, which it is quite often. I also recommend getting it for all of your friends, it's truly an amazing gift. I saw someone else say that their life goal is to get it for all of their friends and I think that this is a very good goal and have taken it as my own goal. As a friend said to me while I was writing this and asking if I should recommend it or not, it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Seriously give it a go if you think that a so-bad-it's-good game is for you, because never has a game existed more deserving of that title.
