Under Shadows is a text-based adventure game currently under development using the Quest 5 game engine. Under Shadows draws upon the rich heritage of the text-based adventure genre. Much has changed in the time since text-adventure games dominated PC gaming. Under Shadows is, in part, an attempt to bring lessons learned from those years (ie. meaningful choice and dialogue) back into this classic genre. It relies on hyperlinked commands rather than text-input commands and is built in an HTML/JavaScript environment designed for deployment on the web.
Under Shadows is part of the larger Shadowers universe, the tales of which Under Shadows is the first to come to fruition. To play Under Shadows click the banner above.
