The throne is cursed. The dead want it back. You have 12 minutes. Dark Throne is a fast, offline action roguelite. Pick a hero, step into the palace arena, and hold your ground against endless waves of skeletons, orcs and witches. Your hero attacks automatically — you move, dodge, collect, and decide how your build grows. Survive long enough and the Dark King himself will rise to face you. BUILD A NEW HERO EVERY RUN • 12 unlockable heroes — ranger, paladin, mage, necromancer and more, each with unique stats and perks • 48 abilities: arrow storms, chain lightning, earthquakes, blade waves, guardian swords… • Any ability can drop for any hero — chase crazy combinations • Collect artifacts and fuse them with recipes into powerful relics FIGHT REAL BOSSES • Random minibosses invade the arena with unique mechanics • Survive all waves and duel the Dark King himself • Death itself stalks the battlefield — its touch kills instantly. Keep moving. RISK AND REWARD • Grab runes at the forest edge for 30-second power surges • Smash crates, open chests, pull the whole map to you with magnets • Stand in the summoning circle to call a boss early — if you dare PROGRESS THAT STAYS • Upgrade each hero permanently with gold between runs • 5 difficulty levels to conquer • Global leaderboard — climb the ranking with your best score • Auto-save: close the app any time and continue your run later MADE FOR PHONES • One-finger controls: hold the screen and your hero runs • Short 12-minute sessions, fully playable offline • No ads.
