Dark Kingdoms is a strategy and conquest game for 2 to 4 players, set in 5th-century Britain, at the height of the clash between the Celtic peoples and the Germanic invasions.
Each player leads a faction with its own king or leader:
- The Saxons of Cerdic, in the south.
- The Angles of Eomer, in the east.
- Hengist's Jutes in the north.
- Vortigern's Britons, the legitimate rulers in decline.

Build settlements, fortifications, and fleets, recruit troops, and expand your domain. Manage your resources wisely (wood, iron, stone, wheat, and gold) and face your rivals in battles, raids, and sieges.

Game mechanics
To defeat your rivals, you will have to prove that your civilization is the strongest. To do so, you have several ways to earn victory points, and you will use different game mechanics during the games. There is no single path to victory!
- Resource management: produce, manage, and invest to strengthen your faction.
- Strategic construction: fortresses, settlements, and fleets that ensure control of the map.
- Epic combat: battles, sieges, and looting resolved with dice and cards.
- Fame cards: reward feats and grant tactical advantages.
- Competitive and team modes (2 vs. 2): alliances, betrayals, and all-out war.
