Dear Players,
By the end of this week, we plan to release the final version of the client with enhanced security measures. We hope this will help us address the client protocol protection issue, which should have been implemented during the games development phase. Following this release, we will continue to make other changes in the game.

Additionally, many of you have requested a lottery feature, and we will be launching it soon for you.

Thank you for staying with DarkSwords.

Best regards, The Administration

Dear Users,

We are excited to announce that on Monday, May 27, 2024, we will be releasing a new version of the client with an updated protocol. Please note that you will not be able to access the game with the old version after this update.

Unfortunately, updating the client in the Microsoft Store and Steam might take some time, so we kindly ask for your patience as these updates are processed.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

Thank you, The DarkSwords Team

Dear users, we remind you that the server is not switch the clock to summer / winter time. Thus, if for you the server restart was at 11:00, it will happen at 12:00, etc.

If there are any problems on the server or site - we will fix them within 24 hours.

Unfortunately, there was a prolonged server outage due to the host. The server is now back up and running. We apologize for the inconvenience. Heres what weve done for you:

• Subscriptions, presents, extended inn, extended bar, etc. have been extended by 30 days (if they were activated as of March 21 at 8:00)
• Until the restart on April 5, x2.5 bonuses are enabled for battle experience, religion experience, clan experience, bboard experience, and profession experience
• For purchases from dealers until April 5, you will receive +100% palladium (previously it was +30% platinum and palladium, now its +30% platinum and +100% palladium)
• In the near future, we will provide an additional gift for players

Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for staying with us.

Sometimes on Mondays we will change some game rules just for one day, that will make world absolutely insane. Try to get a new gaming experience from the DS.

February 19th after the restart, we will limit the number of uses of any potions to 5 per turn (2 seconds). Only potions that were actually used will be counted in the limit. Previously, each click on a potion was counted.

February 12th after the restart, we will limit the number of uses of any potions to 5 per turn (2 seconds). The main goal of this test is to see if its realistic to play in such a way. Anyone can press a combination of 5 potions, meaning everyone has an equal chance. Perhaps under these conditions, tactics will come to the forefront rather than the speed of pressing. In general, be sure to give it a try. We will greatly appreciate any feedback on the forum.
