About This Game

ABOUT THIS GAME
Darkest Messia is a story-driven dark-fantasy RPG with survival, settlement building, and faith management.
The world has nearly lost its light—the god of light is dying. The Darkness has become alive.
You are one of the few whose soul still interests the gods.
Build a sanctuary, gather people under your banner, and decide whom to serve: Light, Darkness, or Blood.
Your choice shapes your abilities, the fate of your settlement, and the very end of the world.

A WORLD THAT WANTS TO DEVOUR YOU
Explore procedurally generated lands, where every region follows its own laws:

• abandoned plains;

• ruined temples of fading gods;

• blood-soaked forests;

• cities consumed by absolute darkness.

Darkness is not just night.
It presses on you, breaks your sanity, burns your skin, and hides creatures that feed on fear.

SETTLEMENT, FAITH, AND TRAITORS
Build and develop your refuge:
houses, forges, altars, fields, defensive structures.
Rescue survivors and assign them roles. Observe their fears, behavior, and faith.

But remember:

• secret cults may arise among your people;

• resources vanish;

• doors stay open at night;

• whispers in the dark can either undermine or empower your church.

Identify the guilty, interrogate, judge—and your god will grow stronger with every act of faith… or blood.

FAITH IS YOUR WEAPON
At the beginning, no one needs you. The gods don’t care about you.
You grow only through the skills you use: shooting, stealth, survival, running.

Later, you choose a god and gain unique talent trees:

SOLAMIR — God of Light:
Cleave through darkness, unleash blinding flashes, and bring inquisitorial wrath upon heretics.

ABELKAR — God of Darkness:
Merge with the shadows, raise monsters, and become a creature of the night yourself.

VIRETH — God of Blood:
Feed on the blood of lesser beings. Blood is your currency. Madness is your gift.
All seven senses sharpen to inhuman levels.

Death punishes progress, but the gods can bring you back… as long as they still need you.

BRUTAL COMBAT AND SURVIVAL
First-person:
— firearms
— ranged weapons
— manual aiming

Third-person:
— swords
— daggers
— shields
— torches
— dodging and blocking

A single mistake may cost you your life—or your settlement.
Light, fire, sound, smell—these are resources just like food and materials.

DARKEST MESSIA is a story about what will remain of humanity when the light is almost dead,
and the gods still want someone to live… and believe in them.
Because perhaps one of them will become their Messiah.
