Mike Singleton's '85 classic Adventure Strategy sequel to The Lords of Midnight, brought to and updated for iOS. "It is many moons now since the Lords of Midnight first appeared out of the soft, wearing gloom. Those of you who took up their challenge and rode with them to battle against the cruel Witchking will need no reminding of that epic struggle. But now a new epic tale unfolds, the story of Doomdark’s Revenge. The game itself involves both quest and warfare, both exploration and careful strategy. You can play on your own or with friends; there are enough different characters at your command for all the family to join in and struggle against Shareth Heartstealer, Empress of the frozen Empire!" - Mike Singleton - 1985 Praise for The Lords of Midnight iOS.

Few titles weather the storms of time as well as this solid-gold classic." - Rating 4/5 - PocketGamer.co.uk “Made of extremely bright colors and clean lines, a stylistic choice that was and still is very original.” – Multiplayer.it "Despite the perfectly adapted touch controls and crisp graphic presentation, this is a proper 1980s they-don’t-make-’em-like-they-used-to game" - PocketTactics.com "#3 - Top 10 iPad games and apps of December 2012" - QualityIndex.com "Lords of Midnight is an experience that everybody with a remote interest in games should have, buying into your characters and developing your own war stories is a wonderful thing. It is a game with hidden depths that deserve to be plumbed and I cannot recommend it enough." - KoruCottage.com iOS Best Port/Retro Gamer of the Year" - Arcade Life Please check out www.thelordsofmidnight.com/blog for news on updates and new features to come...
