Dark Days: Devil Hunt

Dark Days: Devil Hunt is an action game about Ares, a medieval warrior whose son is kidnapped after demons attack their village. Ares has no magic abilities at the start, but carries the spirit of the sorcerer who once sealed the demon Azazil and his creatures inside Pandora’s box. He seeks a powerful wizard’s help to find his son and avenge the attack, while his magical abilities develop over time.

The story

Centuries ago, demons, monsters, goblins and dragons invaded the world and killed its people. A talented wizard imprisoned their leader, Azazil, and the creatures in Pandora’s box with a spell called the death spell, at the cost of his own life. The world returned to peace, and knowledge of the creatures faded until a treasure hunter discovered a hidden cave and opened the box.

Ares is a widower who lives with his son. During their walk, demons attack their village, injure Ares and kidnap the boy. Azazil learns through a diamond ball that the sorcerer’s soul is in a child, though he does not know which one. If that child dies, Azazil dies too, because the wizard’s magic runs in the child’s blood. The demons gather children from the villages as Azazil tries to find the child and neutralize the spell. When an archer shoots the creature carrying Ares’ son to a temple, the boy falls alone and helpless into the middle of a mountain.
