Blade of Darkness is a hack-and-slash action game. From the beginning, you can choose from four different characters that follow almost the same storyline. The only thing that differs (in the storyline perspective) between them is that each of them have a different starting-map, the rest of the maps are the same for everybody. The game engine is build entirely on Python. In Blade of Darkness you are able to collect a large amounts of weapons along with the journey and you can pickup ALMOST anything around you (things like stools, torches, and even severed limbs of your enemies) and using them as weapons. Although the game is pretty old (was released in 2001), the lightning effects are quite impressing. It's replayabilty is good, because the storyline and the size and number of the maps are good, but also, it has a map-editor which means that the replayability is drastically increased. Overall, it's a good game. It's worthwhile to take a peek ;)
