Dark Realms

Hexen mod |

Combining the aura of Stonekeep with the critical thinking of Zork and the magic of Strife, Dark Realms is sure to please any die hard Hexen fans with a sweet spot for puzzles and quests in a role playing environment. Set in a post-apocalyptic world of devastation and scorched earth, you are, to your knowledge, the last human alive on this planet. Your mission, at first, is simple: avenge your species and obliterate the evil dudes! But, as you quickly learn, the MOD becomes far more involved and complex as you journey deeper into the heart of Dark Realms.

No release date yet, but the current goal is this coming December at the latest. In the meantime, feel free to drop me any advice you have either in terms of bug-fixing, map-refining, or whatever.

After 3.1, progress will resume on 4.0 as usual.
