About This Game

See through the eyes of a knight whose order has long been forgotten…

Darkrite: The Blight of Love tells two intertwined stories that explore tragic grief, generational trauma, and depression.

This game is made for fellow fans of old-school RPGs who prefer focused storytelling; the game aims to respect your time while stirring the mind and heart.

features:

  • Developed by a heartbroken person

  • Play as a visual novel - or - with paced ARPG combat: old school but with some twists

  • Retro RPG graphics inspired by love for games like Ultima, Diablo, the original Baldur's Gate

  • A serious, literary tone but... (see next bullet)

  • An unlikely vampire ally - who makes subtle game references (hint cough Adoring Fan cough) but has character development crucial to the entire story

  • A small, focused setting that doesn't meander in its worldbuilding

  • Hints at the larger Darkrite lore which started as a tabletop campaign still going today

  • Meant to "feel" like a fantasy novel

  • Handcrafted, intentional writing

  • Foreshadows a planned expansion with a style change I think you'll enjoy
