About Chronicles of a Dark Lord: Episode 1 Tides of Fate Complete
Chronicles of a Dark Lord is an old-school adventure RPG from a small indie studio that wears its passion for classic fantasy openly. You're playing as a morally grey protagonist in a world that doesn't care if you're the hero, and the narrative tries hard to deliver on that premise. The writing has teeth, the setting is genuinely dark, and if you're the type who loved early BioWare or Planescape: Torment despite their jank, there's something worth exploring here. That said, this is a 2013 indie game made by a handful of people, and it shows. The UI is clunky, combat feels turn-based but sluggish, and the voice acting ranges from earnest to rough. It's not unplayable, but it demands patience. If you're okay with a game that prioritizes story weight over mechanical polish, and you've got a high tolerance for indie rough edges, this one might scratch an itch for dark fantasy RPGs that aren't trying to be AAA.
