Darkness Rises is a third-person action RPG set in a fantasy universe, where you can choose from four different characters to start the adventure with. You can choose between a warrior, berserker, wizard, and assassin. Plus, after the tutorial, you can use a powerful editor to customize your character down to the littlest detail.

The gameplay in Darkness Rises is very similar to other titles in the genre. On the left side of the screen, you have the virtual movement stick, while on the right you'll find the (many) action buttons. At times, you can even complete spectacular "finishers" against some specific enemies.

Before jumping into battle, you can customize your hero in a lot of different ways. Not only can you equip him with new weapons and armor, but you can also unlock new abilities to give your character. Both the abilities and the equipment can also be leveled up with the gold you earn.

Darkness Rises is an excellent ARPG that offers a fun and original game experience. The graphics are also truly amazing, with tons of enemies on the screen at the same time and some (like the dragons) are especially impressive.
