The links open on an outside file host. Every host has the same files; use whichever works for you.
Install with the installer
- Download the installer and start it.
- Windows may show "Windows protected your PC", because the file is not signed. Click "More info", then "Run anyway".
- Choose a folder you may write to, for example C:\Games. Do not use "Program Files".
- When it has finished, start the game from the "Darkeden Oldschool" shortcut on your desktop.
Install from the zip file
- Download the zip file.
- Right-click it and choose "Extract All". Put the folder on your Desktop or in Documents, not in "Program Files".
- Open the folder and start "DarkEden Launcher.exe".
First start
- The launcher checks for updates by itself and downloads what is new. Wait until both bars are full.
- Pick your screen size in the launcher, then press START.
- Sign in with the account name and password you made on this website.
If something goes wrong
- Your antivirus removes or blocks the game: add the game folder to its list of allowed folders, then start the launcher again. It repairs missing files.
- The game closes by itself: start "DarkEden-safe.exe" from the game folder instead, and send us the file "DarkEden.log" from that folder.
- A download link does not work: try the other host.
- Found a fault in the game? Report a problem
- Anything else: ask in the help channel on our Discord.
Only download the game through the links on this page or on our Discord.
