The Dark Horde

The Dark Horde is a roguelike deckbuilder where you control the flow of time by playing cards! Summon a horde of minions at your command, harvest the Souls of fallen enemies and send your disposable Goblin Looters on the Battlefield to seize precious Gold. Lay waste and enjoy being Evil!



In The Dark Horde the main resource is Time. Play cards or activate actions that cost Time Units (TUs), then wait that amount of time before it is your turn to play again!



When the action stops you will have a moment to think about what your next move will be. You can play cards and abilities only when the time is stopped: plan your actions carefully!



There are tons of minions at your disposal. Your spellbook has access to the most powerful sorceries. Experiment and find hidden combos and synergies!



Have your Ossean priests worship Death, sacrifice your cultists to summon the mightiest of all demons, discover epic allies for your quest!



The objective of the game is simple: either you plunder the enemy Village or you manage to resist for 3 days, fending off the assault of angry Villagers.
You start each Battle Round with 180 Time Units. When you play Cards or Actions you spend Time Units. You must wait that amount of time before playing your next Card or Action!



Send your Goblin Looters to seize precious Gold, grasp the Souls of slain Villagers and then raze the enemy settlement! Between each battle you can spend your loot to acquire new cards, improve your abilities or learn powerful skills!



You can plan your strategy ahead: choose how to spend your loot, which abilities to upgrade and select the best skills that suit your strategy.



For every successful run you will be rewarded with an upgraded card! Upgrades are permanent and you will benefit from them for each upcoming run in the game!
