About this game

In an age of dark fantasy, Heroes from the three great factions face off in an endless struggle for power and survival. Whose power will you embrace: the mystic Vampires, the brutal Werewolves, or the cunning Humans?

Heroes of the Dark (HotD) is an RPG game set in a grim Victorian world full of forsaken lands, arcane mysteries, and vile monsters. To survive, you must recruit, equip, and train Heroes from each faction, for only one who can master their combined might will prevail in 5v5 RPG battles and prevent the rise of a grim fate from befalling the land of Tenebris.

A Dark Tale to Challenge your Heroes

Long ago, a great war ended with the moon shattering in the heavens. Its shards rained upon the world, granting the Werewolves untold strength. Thus empowered, the Werewolves drove the Vampires from the land and across the sea to Tenebris. In time, the outcast Vampires rebuilt their society by subjugating the local Humans to their will. But over the years, the Humans forged secret technologies to overthrow their undead masters… and just as the first uprisings began, the Werewolves arrived once more on the Vampires’ doorstep.

Now, as the carnage has reached its peak, a different threat has emerged, one capable of obliterating all three factions from the world. The only hope for any of them is to somehow unite the factions and destroy a legendary weapon hidden within an ancient tower.

Tactical 5v5 Combat with Immortal Heroes

As you journey across Tenebris, dozens of immortal Heroes from all three factions will join your cause. Each has their own unique combat style and skills, like Kha’alil the Werewolf Tank, Lucretia the Vampire Assassin, or Altinay the Human Support.

Assembling an effective role-playing team takes more than throwing your strongest Heroes together. You must make the most of their physical, magical, and support skills, discover powerful synergies, and devise a battle plan that can unleash unspeakable devastation upon any foe!

A Real-Time RPG Adventure

The action never stops in HotD! Day and night, your might grows as Heroes train to level up and explore dungeons to find mighty relics. You can send them on a quest now and check back later to see what weapons, armour, and treasures they’ve unearthed.

And when the going gets tough, the tough call on friends and allies to help defeat even the most massive foe.

Explore Your Epic Magic Mansion

Your epic adventure begins from within a gothic mansion filled with dark magic waiting to be unlocked. As your power grows, you will unlock rooms, allowing you to unite more Heroes of darkness to your cause and granting you additional powers to bestow upon your champions.

Find Friends and Challenge Rivals in a Multiplayer Adventure

As you team up with other HotD players, you can challenge rival teams to 5v5 showdowns where only the most skilled and well equipped players can win! Great rewards await those who claim victory, but only one can claim the ultimate power: “The Heart of Tenebris.”

Heroes of the Dark is available in 12 different languages: English, Русский, Español, Deutsch, Français, Português, Italiano, العربية , 한국어, 简体中文, 繁體中文 and 日本語.

Ratings and reviews

Has potential, but has the most annoying feature I have ever seen in a game. Any time you send a team on a mission, when they you have 3s to hit the tiny opt out button or you are sucked into the sloooow fight, losing whatever else you were doing. Setting up your squad to go hit that lvl 8 nuker camp you found after scrolling around on the map? Oops, going to have to find it again, you missed your window. Need to switch that to "click to opt IN to view," add double speed combat, and save lineups

Its a slow grind game with a "wait and see" approach. That is, you send your people out and then wait and see what they do. You can only watch them. Very little strategy beyond initial positioning and giving them gear. But the auto gear option is dumb. It will prioritize health regen over crit chance or crit damage. And there is a bug in Catacombs where if a teammate dies, your game crashes after picking a replacement. I reported it but they don't fix it.

Not generally a fan of this type of game but I was enticed by the atmosphere and it's actually pretty good. Lots of grinding to level characters but also lots to do. Story is slow due to having to grind so much but entertaining nonetheless. Graphics are simple but nice. Shop prices are standard for the genre but not really necessary if you have a little patience. I like the ability to relocate your base and the crystal system, which gives you a little control over what you choose to level.
