Shadowman: Darque Legacy

Shadowman: Darque Legacy is a TPP action adventure game developed by Blowfish.

Plot

As the title suggest, the game is based on the license of a series of comic books published by Valiant. The main protagonist is Jack Boniface (replacing the protagonist of previous installments, Michael LeRoi) - a jazz musician, chosen by a secret sabbath to be the new wielder of the magical necromantic power known as Darque. This turns him into Shadowman - a hero battling dark forces and monstrous humans.

Mechanics

Shadowman: Darque Legacy is a third-person action adventure game. The player must explore different locations, solve puzzles and battle humans and monsters. There are also numerous bosses to challenge. Combat is brutal and challenging, mostly emphasizing melee engagements.

An important part of the game is switching between the worlds of the living and the dead, which is especially useful when solving puzzles. The game also features soft RPG elements, such as character development.

Game modes

The game only supports singleplayer.

Technical aspects

Shadowman: Darque Legacy features fully 3D visuals, their main appeal being the interesting character and location designs based on the original comic book.
