Hi all! I’m the solo developer of Shadowrealm: Age of Darkness, a free dark-fantasy PBBG that runs in the browser on phone and PC, nothing to download.
It’s been live since this summer, has a bit over 1,000 characters and around 100 active players a week, and I ship an update multiple times per week (often straight from player suggestions on Discord or in game).
What you can do
- Commit crimes, run heists with your crew, and break other players out of jail (or end up there yourself)
- Fight other players in PvP, a monthly ranked Arena and duels with optional gold wagers
- Rebuild your bloodline’s ruined stronghold, join a guild and race other guilds
- Gather and craft through four professions (mining, hunting, herbalism, woodcutting) with idle expeditions up to 16 hours
- Tavern mini-games (arm wrestling, knife throwing, a drinking contest) with a daily ranked score and weekly prizes
- Casinos (plinko, roulette, slots, blackjack, dice and more), a lottery, a player marketplace and city bosses the whole server fights together
- An endgame Ascension (prestige) system with an 8-branch talent tree
What I’d love feedback on
- The first 15 minutes: is it clear what to do, or do you bounce?
- Anything that feels grindy, confusing or broken on your device
