Apprentice of Darkness is a grim, turn-based strategy game where you spread corruption across a continent, build a Tower of Darkness, summon monstrous allies, and sacrifice captured foes in wickedly fun cutscenes. Every five levels, seasons shift and the world evolves, challenging your strategy with new threats and opportunities.
In Apprentice of Darkness, players spread corruption through a broken continent, conquering kingdoms, and evolving their power via gruesome sacrifice. Behind the curtain lies the mysterious Tower of Darkness — your seat of power — which players will build and expand to unlock increasingly unholy upgrades.
Each battlefield is a puzzle of tactics, environmental manipulation, and demonic might. Every five levels, the seasons shift — freezing rivers, withering crops, and opening new opportunities for conquest… or calamity.

Quote from the Developer
"I wanted to make a game that lets you fully embrace your inner villain — not just thematically, but strategically. Apprentice of Darkness lets you play smart, play dirty, and have a bit of evil fun along the way."
