The Dark Fantasy tag is used to describe a specific subgenre of fantasy settings and stories that have a darker and more sinister tone compared to traditional high fantasy.
In Dark Fantasy games, the world is often portrayed as gritty, bleak, and haunted by dark forces. These games delve into themes such as despair, moral ambiguity, corruption, and the struggle between good and evil.
