Dark Earth Description
Adventure with an action reaching 300 years into the future of our planet, when the Earth is no longer the same "Blue Planet" as we know it. After being bombed by the debris of a flying meteor in the 21st century, it turned into an almost extinct globe, to which, apart from a few places, the sun's rays do not reach. It was in these illuminated places that the remains of our civilization concentrated, trying to survive. The development of mankind was suddenly halted, and as in the Middle Ages, cults and religious sects became a very important part of society. In the midst of growing crime and power struggle in the new world, we play the role of Arkhan, the Guardian of Fire. Our adventure begins when we defend the priestess of the Temple of the Sun, Lori, from the attack of the Concalits, and as a result we are infected with a mysterious substance, which starts the process of mutation of the human body. Man gradually turns into a beast dangerous to the environment. When we race against time, we have to find an effective antidote and find out who tried to commit this crime and why.
Passing through the levels, we talk to the characters we meet, solve complex puzzles and use the objects found to pave the way forward. A total of more than 50 levels are available, on which we will meet nearly 100 characters with individual features. The people we meet can help us complete our mission, but sometimes the only way out is to get rid of the unwanted character who will get in our way.
All the models and objects were made in full 3D. While visiting the next stages, we can see realistically made backgrounds, which we will encounter in the game a few thousand in total. In addition, the engine provides effects such as multicolored lighting and the casting of dynamic shadows by each character encountered.
