Darkrise is a classic hardcore game that was created by two indie developers in nostalgic pixel style. In this action RPG game you can get acquainted with 4 classes - Mage, Warrior, Archer and Rogue. Each of them has their own unique skills, game mechanics, features, strengths and weaknesses. Homeland of the game hero has been invaded by goblins, undead creatures, demons and neighboring countries. Now the hero has to become stronger and clean the country from invaders. There are about 100 location to play on and 3 difficulties. Enemies will spawn in a front of you or appear from portals that will spawn randomly on location every few seconds. All enemies are different and have their unique features. Defective enemies can appear sometimes, they have random stats and you cannot predict their powers. Fighting system is quite juicy: camera shakes, strike flashes, health drop animation, dropped items fly in sides. Your character and enemies are fast, you always have to move if you don't want to lose. There are lots of possibilities to make your character stronger. There are 8 types and 6 rarities of equipment. You can make slots in your armor and place gems there, you can also combine several gems of one type to get an upgraded one. The smith in the town will gladly enchance and reforge your armor that will make it even better.
