Chronicles of a Dark Lord: Rhapsody Clash

Overall, Chronicles of a Dark Lord: Rhapsody Clash, whilst not being the best starting point to the series, is nevertheless a game worth playing through at least twice. Ahead of Kisareth’s plans to bring the first two games to iOS and Android, as well as the upcoming third instalment to the main series, Episode III: Rise of Nihility, It’s a very entertaining spin-off title, which I would thoroughly recommend.
