Reviews

“this is splendid….it’s basically Thief…but in Doom 3. Even now, there’s a good couple of hours of classic immersive sim action here, and I recommend it strongly.”
–Rock, Paper, Shotgun

“They’ve nailed the murky feel of [a thief’s] world, the scope of his movement and the thrill of hiding in the shadows.”
–PCGamer UK

“the potential I feel it has after the hours I’ve spent playing it and the handful of missions I’ve seen is simply stag- gering…. I, for one, am sold. My thanks to the Dark Mod Team.”
–Sneaky Jack, Thief: The Circle

Stealth Gaming in a Gothic Steampunk World

THE DARK MOD is a total conversion for Doom 3, turning it into a dark and moody stealth game inspired by the Thief series by Looking Glass Studios. More like a professional game release than a mod, it includes creative new gameplay features, dozens of unique AI, and a complete set of custom art assets, allowing players and mappers alike to enjoy missions in a gothic steampunk universe. The Dark Mod was officially released on October 17th, 2009.

Plenty of vantage points, exits and entries – multiple ways to plan your route through the byways of Bridgeport: In this shot we spent quite a bit of time getting the perf to acceptable levels with out sacrificing  artistic vision and intent. Its a mixture of imposing framework of the city, and dark nooks and crannies.

 Imposing city streets that twist and turn, hiding dark secrets & resourceful opponents: The city looks alive and believably organic in a pre-contemporary vision. This is tempered by the need for consistent performance so that even players with low end hardware will have a rewarding experience.
