Hades and Poseidon have set a trap to lure Zeus into the underworld and their bait is Persephone, Zeus' beautiful daughter. Zeus knows he cannot help his daughter without jeopardizing his safety, Elias is on his own and must find his way to the underworld to save his fiance.
Dark Romance has done it again! They have presented us with a beautiful love story where love has no boundaries. As with all Dark Romance game, you get to play the game from both lovers perspectives, switching flawlessly between Persephone's character in the land of Hades and Elias character who's desperately trying to find his beloved. There are lots of Achievements to earn, 14 Artifacts of the Gods to find, 38 Olive branches to collect that allow you to purchase items for the Muse Statues in the Boudoir, and even collectible Power-Ups for the Match 3 games (bombs, lightning, Rainbows)
The Hidden Object Scenes are varied with familiar favorites such as Interactive List Finds, as well as Progressive Silhouetted Shape Finds and Spot the Differences, there are even small Zoom Zone HOP's where you find Multiples of items. You can opt for a Match 3 game instead of the HOP's and use the bonus tokens you have collected throughout the game.
The Mini Games are fairly easy, although some are a bit time consuming and a tad frustrating. Below are brief descriptions of some of the games you'll encounter during the demo:
1) Choose the matching symbols on the note and the scroll to reveal coded words.
2) Move items to clear a path for a net to catch a fish, which are grid size related.
3) Cover the board with more green than blue stones. If you move one space, the stone will duplicate leaving one behind. If either colored stone touches a different color, the different stone and all adjacent stones will change color.
4) Arrange the plates so that they match the charms hanging below.
5) Place each of the animals on its constellation so the stars line up to key points.
6) Open all the flowers, clicking on some flowers will affect other flowers.
This Collector's Edition has 24 Achievements, 9 Boudior muses to adorn, 28 Concept Art pictures, 19 Wallpapers, 5 Music Soundtracks, 14 Collectible Artifacts of the Gods, 10 Movies, 38 Collectible Olive Branches, Journal Notes, a built in Strategy Guide and a Bonus Chapter, enjoy! Show less

Persephone and Elias are to be wed, with her father, Zeus's, blessings. Unfortunately Hades and Poseidon, Zeus's brothers, have decided to seize his power. Their plot involves kidnapping Persephone and keeping her in the underworld. Zeus expects Elias to save his daughter on his own.
As in earlier games in the Dark Romance Series, you will play as both Elias and Persephone alternately, first in the underworld and later back in the real world. You will meet characters from Greek mythology as well as common folk. There will be multiple collectibles including power-ups for the Match-3 game, varied HOPs with a Match-3 alternative, mini-games, beautiful artwork, good VOs, and lots of CE bling.
Try the Demo for yourself and see if you also might enjoy a visit to ancient Greece.

If you are a fan of Greek mythology you are sure to be captured by this latest game in the Dark Romance series. Although the developers have taken a great deal of creative license in Kingdom of Death it still will appeal to those who love these ancient myths. As in the previous games we have the unique feature of playing both of the star-crossed lovers. Will true love overcome the power struggle between Zeus and his brothers – Poseidon and Hades? Play this terrific game as you encounter other fantastic creatures from mythology.
The game does offer the custom setting, which is the one I normally select if it is available. Even on custom the lowest recharge time for hints and skips is a bit high but that is only my opinion. The graphics are excellent as are the voiceovers. I am very impressed by the realistic characters and love the richness of the overall graphics.
Your tools include an interactive, transporter type map as well as a scroll that includes your current tasks. I didn’t come across anything that appears to be a gimmick but even if there is one included, I am sure it will fit well with the storyline.
The HOPS are varied, interactive and interesting but if you don’t like completing the HOP scenes you have an alternate match-3 type game. As you play through the game, keep your eyes open and look at everything because you never know when you will find a power-up that will help you with the match-3 option. I am really very impressed by all of the extra little touches the developer has added to Kingdom of Death that make it very entertaining. I have played so many HOPA games over the past ten years that when I find something new and unexpected it is very refreshing and revives my interest in the HOPA genre of games. Kudos to this development team for taking the time to create a game with so many extra touches and little surprises. There is not a lot to say about the mini-games because there doesn’t seem to be anything new but they are still enjoyable. As is the case in most games, I suspect the mini-games will increase in difficulty as the game progresses.
There is not a lot to say about the CE version of the game except that it is packed with extras. There are several sets of items to be found and that includes all of those hidden power-ups. There are the usual achievements as well as the standard extras such as the bonus game and the strategy guide. If you enjoy the wallpapers and concept art then this is definitely a game you will want to have.
What a surprising and excellent game that caught me off-guard because I really didn’t think I would like this one as much as I do. The last game in the series was not nearly as entertaining so I didn’t expect that I would care for Kingdom of Death but as a lifetime fan of Greek mythology, this game is just perfect for me even though does take a lot of liberties with the myths. If you are a romantic at heart and enjoy a good love story then Dark Romance Kingdom of Death might be the perfect game for you. I would like to thank BFG and the developers who did an amazing job in creating this game. Although I love this game and purchased it almost immediately, please try the demo to see if this is a game you will like. Show less

This was an insta-buy for me. A remarkable edition that embraces ground breaking technological advances with an extraordinary mythological story. When gods are fighting each other, mortals suffer the consequences. In Dark Romance 3: Kingdom of Death Collector’s Edition Game you will play the role of both mortals — Elias and Persephone. Hades had chosen Persephone, Zeus’ daughter, as a lure for her father. So he kidnaps Persephone during her betrothal with Elias! While they were changing flowers promising to marry each other, Hades changes Persephone’s flower into thorns and drags her to the Underworld, the world of Death! Poseidon, God of the Sea also has a hand in this devious plan to bring Zeus (King of the Gods) to the Underworld. Now it's up to Elias the male character to retrieve and assist Persephone in her quest. By playing both roles in this exciting adventure it adds an element of difficulty and intrigue you won't be able to get enough of. The graphics are stunning and the sound/SFX and VO's are extremely detailed. I didn't even look at the tiny text of dialogue because the lip-sync is perfection. You will also meet other famous characters from Greek Mythology as you work together to solve problems and put their romance to the ultimate test in this intriguing twist on the tale of Persephone! I think this release is a contender for 2016 Game of the Year. Good Luck and Enjoy!!!

2 Character play which I usually do not like. This one was a good enough 2 character game to keep me interested.
Game has: Nice jump map, 2 or 3 collectables. Was hard to determine what was a collectable and it was hard to see what I had collected. If I were to guess I would say Greek objects like winged shoes with a lightening bolt on them. The colors of the game made it hard on the eye when searching for collectables and made me not really want to find them. I like games where the collectable can be seen in detail even though it is standing in front of a tree branch or other items. So that was a downer.
Puzzles were very easy, HO's were a good percentage of working. Add this fix that type thing, critter action, good characters, good ambiance, and lots to do. Show less

Based on the last 2 Dark Romances, I wasn't expecting this to be quite my cup of tea. BUT THIS ONE IS DIFFERENT! Loosely based on the Greek mythologies, you have an Underworld full of fire and brimstone type scenery; the trees are scorched/bare and barren, and crumbling buildings, perched on high, look menacingly down at you. Dark brooding clouds roll by and thunder rumbles constantly. The story is captivating and the music is outstanding. Spaciousness has been incorporated into the scenes by clever design, having both architecture and nature’s creations at many points in the scenes and pathways, near and far.
The regular world, with its mosaics, fountains, tiles and columns, has fresh blue skies, distant clouds, all kinds of rocks and mountain formations, in and around the turquoise and emerald waters. You’ll meet characters on the way at regular intervals, but mainly you’re on your own.
GRAPHICS: Stunning scenery of ocean, mountains and the Underworld. The actual composition and construction of the scenes that you see, works well and is effective. Although the graphics are not of the super-clear variety, everything works well and is visible.
HOPS: VERY ENJOYABLE to play and look at! Good visibility. Interactive: find # morphing objects, so that you can continue to wordlist interactive or silhouettes. (Once or twice translation mistakes, eg Helm instead of helmet -but that’s all). Lots of armor, weapons, jewelry, olives and wreaths.
PUZZLES: Plenty with range of difficulty. Mainly straightforward.
SOUNDS: FANTASTIC SOUNDS: I’m glad I bought the CE for the music alone- you get the sense that you are embarking on a voyage! To be honest this is one of the first games I’ve listened to the music all the way through. The music is not constant, and the ambient effects are full and effective, which then fill in that space, bringing the game to life. Most actions are accompanied by the appropriate sound - you do not play in silence in this game, unless you choose to. Thunder and water sounds have full dimension of frequencies and depth without sounding artificial. Wear your headphones.
HINT: Complete help. DIFFICULTY LEVELS: Usual 4 MAP: Travel -yes INVENTORY: Lockable JOURNAL: NOTES were somewhere for sure, and you get replayable videos.
CHARACTERS: Full of personality. Hades was done well, and Poseidon and Zeus are as you’d expect them to be. I think all the characters you meet on and off are done well and voiced well. The Heroes/Heroines are serious and honorable.
CE : Usual stuff plus, COLLECT 38 GOLDEN OLIVES/BRANCHES to furnish your statue collection appropriately (the more you collect the more you can ‘buy’), and find Collectibles which have of all sorts of mythological information on them.
BONUS GAME: Very good, some Icarus, some Minotaur. About half a dozen more HOPS in the bonus game! A moving and surprising Minotaur-based story.
(As a few reviewers have noted, it does get a little uncomfortable when the guy chained to the rock is being attacked by the Eaglebecause of his agonized yells, and yes, I also removed my headphones until that portion was complete.) Show less

You play as both characters, switching via a magic amulet. When it glows, you know it's time to become the other. I found this unique feature to be charming, since the lovers work together during the adventure.
The challenges were great, including the HOS and an awesome game you play with the 'cowardly captain' in order to advance.
There's custom mode and an interactive map, always good. The graphics are gorgeous, and I was intrigued by both Elias' setting and the Underworld. Show less

6 CHAPTERS PLUS A BONUS CHAPTER
OVERVIEW: Loosely based on Greek myths, enter the world of Ancient Greece and play two characters simultaneously, Persephone and her fiancé, Elias. This is a beautiful 5-star game which should appeal to the entire family. Zeus, Persephone’s father, has sanctioned the marriage between his daughter, Persephone and Elias; however these two find themselves in the midst of a power struggle between Zeus and his brothers, Hades and Poseidon. When Persephone gets kidnapped by Hades, you, as both characters, work to defeat the plan by Hades and Poseidon to usurp power from Zeus.
I LOVE this game rich in Greek culture and mythos. The characters in the game are attractive, realistic looking and the graphics are fairly well done. There is an equal balance of HOP scenes and mini-games. With the exception of one puzzle from the demo, the puzzles are all easy. There is a nice selection of collectibles including Greek artifacts and olives used as currency to purchase items associated with the 9 Greek Muses. The olives are fairly easy to locate; however the artifacts are somewhat difficult to find. You also collect three types of power-ups for the alternative Match-3 game to play in lieu of the HOP scenes. This is a nice touch which I have not seen in any previous games.

HOP SCENES: The HOP scenes are varied, interactive and puzzle-like. You are able to play a thematic Match-3 game instead. The HOP scenes include silhouette items and lists of items to locate. There is also one scene which is puzzle-like and requires you to spot-the-differences between two sides of a scene. There is a multiple-step scene and one mini-HOP scene in which you locate a small amount of one item.
MINI-GAMES: For the most part, the mini-games are easy. However, there is a difficult strategy puzzle in which you play against the computer (supposedly a boat captain) in compiling the most colored marbles. Actually, this was my favorite game to play in the demo. Based loosely on a chess puzzle, it takes some logical thinking skills to be two to three steps ahead of the computer in solving this puzzle. The other puzzles include a rather unique sliding tiles puzzle, several easy variations of matching puzzles, and a sequence puzzle.
LEVELS: Mortal, Demigod, Immortal, Storyteller (which is Custom)
Hints and Skips – 15 to 90 seconds
EXTRAS:
Map is provided as you play the game
