Dark Deity is a fantasy strategic RPG similar to games like Fire Emblem, Valkyria Chronicles, and Pokémon Conquest.

With more than 50 unlockable classes and thirty voiced characters, Dark Deity is sure to please fans of SRPGs with its back-to-roots style gameplay and incredibly deep mechanics.

That game's pixel art harkens back to the early 2000's, a golden time for SRPGs.

Following a group of military academy recruits, Dark Deity tells a tale of a violated thousand-year-long pact, throwing these young soldiers into a complex war with a rich and compelling storyline and a well fleshed out cast of characters.
