Dark Quest


Overview 

Dark Quest is a turn based fantasy role playing adventure game where players assume the role of a mighty barbarian on his epic quest to destroy the forces of the evil sorcerer and save the land from evil. 

An evil sorcerer has appeared in the lands, he has built a dungeon in the nearby village of darkwood, where his minions use it as a base to raid the surrounding villages to bring terror and death to all its citizens. A hero by the name Zantor dares to defy the powers of the sorcerer and seeks to destroy the dungeon and put an end to this. 


Features 

• Enter a world of fantasy and adventure: Explore twisted mazes, find hidden doors and fight bloodthirsty orcs! 

• Roll the skull of fate and reveal your twisted fate: The evil sorcerer will torment your soul for his own amusement, he will summon you in the sphere of judgment where you will be forced to play a twisted game of death, and can you survive his magic? 

• Slaughter endless hordes of orcs & undead: Your strength, courage and strategy will be the key into wining every battle. 

• Trade with the people in the village: Spend the gold you find in your adventures in the village to buy new potions, weapons and spells for your characters. 

• Control a party of up to 3 characters each with their own unique abilities: Use the unique strengths of each character and work together to defeat the minions of the evil sorcerer. 


Characters 

• The Barbarian: A powerful character who can bring terror and destruction to all his enemies with his destructive force and skill of sword. 

• The Wizard: This character is very weak in close combat but his highly potent spells are capable of altering the outcome of any battle to your favor. Use his powers wisely and you may stand a chance against the hordes of the evil sorcerer. 

• The Dwarf: The dungeons are vast and dangerous but with the help of your ally Thorin the Dwarf you have nothing to fear. His quick feet and eye for danger will save you against numerous traps and grave danger!

Like a turn-based Diablo

FYI, There is a new update that fixes the talisman quest bug! I was able to complete the game. Both games are turn-based and grid-based. You have a party of heroes with limited action points, potions, and skills. You cannot just hack and slash your way through the games, and have to make wise choices regarding what skills or potions are used. In the first game, making use of choke points was important as well. I enjoyed both games, but Dark Quest II is the better game because it improved a great deal on the first: More heroes to choose from (added archer, healer, dark mage), more potion options, more blacksmith options (with crafting gear), longer game, vastly improved graphics, and the ability to replay levels to get more gold or magic pots (for upgrading abilities). My only criticism is not being able to see what abilities a hero has when choosing them for the first time (Dark Quest II). If you enjoy Diablo, dark fantasy settings, and turn-based combat, these games shouldn't disappoint. I really feel the games are worth in the $20 range, so at $10 you can't go wrong.

Bug makes game unfinishable

The version of Dark Quest 2 here can't be compleated currently. (2/28/2020) Towards the end of the campain the mission "Decent to Chaos" can't be finished. Picking up the (required) talisman piece doesn't end the mission, and their is no way to exit the level other than to flee and fail to compleat. Consisdering how long ago the game was released on steam that a bug like this should not be present it feals grievous that a buged copy is what was made available on GOG.

Fun Game with Friends: Dark Quest II

I would give it a solid 4 for what it is (it is not Diablo or POE). I have played Dark Quest II, with friends. If you are looking for a fun easy going multiplayer experience, I recommend this one. Definitely worth $5-$10 (I'd pay up to $15). Bug free. Graphics are "simple" but very well done. There is a decent amount of humour. Game mechanics are straight-forward but involved enough that you and your friends will not be bored by the end. If you do not enjoy turn-based games, give this one a try (they are generally not my thing). Cycling through to your turn does not take too much time. The group plays as a party that moves from room to room as a group, there is no running ahead or losing one another. Each fried controls a single character (no multi NPC-party management). There is just enough challenge to make it fun, without being frustrated (and you may chose your difficulty!). I could see replaying this with friends everyone once and awhile. You do not have to be a master gamer to play. Entering multiplayer is simple, but you have to ensure everyone moves into the game lobby together.

This is a "little game", but I like it very much. The gameplay is nice, the art is excellent, and the music is WONDERFUL (at least for a 53 years old gamer). Frankly, as a European (French), I've discovered I relate a lot more to gaming Russian atmosphere than to american crafted games.

No real loot to be found

Bought this game because I liked the graphics, and was looking for a simple dungeon crawling game. But to my utter amazement there is NO LOOT to be found. No real loot anyway, just money. And with that money you can only buy the same few items the whole game long. So if you are looking for a game where you can find potions, items, armor, etc. look for another game.
