Read full description
Darkwood: Reforged brings back the magic of the beloved 1992 Macintosh RPG for a new generation. Step into the boots of an adventurer in the mysterious town of Darkwood, where danger lurks around every corner and glory awaits those brave enough to seek it.
CLASSIC RPG COMBAT
Experience authentic turn-based combat with D&D-inspired mechanics. Roll to hit, deal damage, cast spells, and use items strategically to overcome your foes. Every battle is a test of skill and preparation.
THE ARENA AWAITS
Face off against 30 unique creatures in the legendary Darkwood Arena. Start with Giant Rats and work your way up through Orcs, Werewolves, and Giants until you're ready to challenge the fearsome Red Dragon itself. Win your way up the ranks from Recruit to Captain of the Guard.
EXPLORE DANGEROUS LAND
Venture beyond the safety of town into six perilous zones: the haunted Thornwood Forest, the treacherous Easthill Mines, the lawless Bandit's Reach, the cursed Marshlands, the deadly Frozen Pass, and the volcanic Ashpeak Mountains. Every step turns up a creature, a trap, or treasure.
GEAR UP FOR BATTLE
Visit the shops of Darkwood to equip yourself with powerful weapons, sturdy armor, and mystical spells. From simple daggers to the legendary Flame Tongue, find the gear that matches your playstyle.
COMPLETE QUESTS FOR REWARDS
Check the bulletin board at the Inn for bounties and mysteries. Track down dangerous creatures, uncover secrets, and earn gold and experience to fuel your adventure.
BUILD YOUR LEGEND
Create your hero with classic RPG attributes: Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma. Every level grants attribute points that you spend yourself — no random rolls, no penalties — so your hero grows the way you choose. Strength swings harder, Dexterity dodges blows, Wisdom sharpens your magic, and Charisma haggles the shopkeepers down.
