About this board game

Legions of Darkness is a solitaire fantasy States of Siege game for one player, with a play time of about 30 minutes. You must defend Highmoor Castle against relentless attacks for three days and two nights, holding out until reinforcements arrive.

Dark legions besiege the castle from every side, while your supplies are limited and only a few defenders are available to man the walls. Survival depends on making wise decisions about where and when to attack, how to marshal your heroes, which spells to cast, and what deadly traps to build.

The siege brings a grim variety of enemies to Highmoor Castle. Among the threats are:

  • Undead skeletal riders
  • Giant armored orcs
  • Fearsome dragons

Every choice matters as you attempt to withstand the advancing hordes. You must use your limited resources carefully, position your defenders effectively, and hope that your decisions—and a little luck—are enough to keep the castle from falling.

Legions of Darkness offers a focused solo challenge built around desperate defense and difficult tactical choices. Can you survive the siege, protect Highmoor Castle, and endure until help arrives?
