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.

• 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!

Good Heroquest-like game.

The first game is a bit basic but I found the second really good. I own them both on Steam. Worth a buy if you like heroquest type games!

Very good at what it does

I was able to defeat the Evil Wizard and complete the game. For a cheap simple dungeon game it is very good, in that you have to develop strategies using combinations of character types to win. The user interface is good, so clicking is kept to a minimum. So it does what you would expect in a pleasant way, and you do have to plan your attacks carefully to survive. You can replay missions, although it is repetitive by nature. It does hang on occasion. To be fair I have both Heroquest and Advanced Heroquest.

All right...

This isn't a bad game. It has some nice advancements over Dark Quest 1 in that the characters actually level up and get better with time. The levels are unique and in almost every level there is one special enemy or item or something else. It has a few bugs, but i personally only had one level breaking bug. I had to restart the whole level. The ending was quite disappointing, but nothing unexpected. All in all a fun, all right game. Far better than Dark Quest 1. If you are interested in my full opinion, here is my complete playthrough on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxWCF-q9QVKvRW-e8m2uDp4SGh8C_KeE1

Good luck playing

Game crashing after the 1st quest. Got to town and cannot leave. My character has disappeared. I've tried every "fix" I came across.. No matter what. Game fails at the very start... the heck with it... just "burned" my money. Too late to do do anything with GOG about it. Using Win 10 with all up to date innards... so good luck if you buy.

Good game, bad GOG version

Dark Quest is a solid, fun little dungeon crawl, marred by a lazy GOG implementation. There's no achievements, and the custom map section in game tells you to open the Steam Workshop which obviously you can't do... By all means grab it on sale, but if you want the proper experience you paid for you shouldn't grab it here sadly.
