After working for over year on Dark Maidens, we at ArchWitch Games have put a lot of love into our game. Truth be told, game development is very difficult and we had to learn everything by doing it as we made Dark Maidens from scratch, creating all the art, animation, sound, story, music, and code. The game may not be perfect and certainly our inexperience in finding and fostering a community, the genre of the game, and our overall inexperience contributed to this. Nevertheless, we love making games and we want to show it. So we are happy to announce that Dark Maidens will become Free To Play December 17th of 2022. We would be very happy if you played Dark Maidens, so please look forward to it!

Meet the Cast

Abigale
Abigale is a devout follower of the Church who was given orders to keep watch over Galahad and keep his sword loyal to their cause. Though she and Galahad have fought together side by side in the past, she has a cold disdain towards Galahad for having so little faith in the Church.
Trina
Once she was a part of the Church, but ever since she was turned into a vampire, she’s been reviled and hunted by crusaders and witch hunters. She still has kept a playful personality despite her past. That is mainly because she has never found the crusaders to be much of a problem because of her skill with a scythe as well as having vampire strength. She is very confident in her fighting skills and is very enthusiastic about finding Galahad, her new play thing.
Slan
Of the three sisters in arms, she is the eldest of them. She was born into the world a demon and ever since has been reviled as one. She’s not fond of outsiders, especially those related to the Church. So it’s no wonder that Galahad and Slan really don’t get along when they first meet.
Gila
Gila used to be an inquisitor for the Church. She made many a wretched soul pour their hearts out and repent for their actions against the Church. Gila is incredibly sadistic and very much enjoyed her duties, however because of her maniacal and chaotic tendencies to go...lets say...a little crazy, she herself fell under inquisition, accused of being possessed by the devil. She underwent the tortures she herself had inflicted on others and because of that became blind in one eye. She however managed to escape from the Church’s clutches and now turns her blade against her former comrades who did her wrong. She definitely has a hard time trusting anybody, including her newfound sisters in arms and fights with them...a lot.
Galahad
Despite not having any faith, Galahad like many had little choice but to be conscripted by the Church to fight in the Holy Wars. Though he achieved great feats in battle, he never was able to raise his rank because of his lack of faith. So he spent his days serving under his commander, Lady Abigale. Now having traveled far out of the Church's domain, will Galahad continue down the burning path of righteous blood and honor laid out for him by the Church, or will he take up the sword and fight for himself and forge his own path?
