Dark Sun takes place in a post-apocalyptic fantasy world that plays out like Mad Max meets Dungeons & Dragons, where water, flora, fauna and hard metals are precious and scarce. A sort of “medieval Fallout” with magic and psionic powers, Dark Sun is a memorable tabletop game setting that inspired two classic DOS RPGs that still hold up today, for those with the patience to see it through.

Developed by Strategic Simulations, Inc. as their first great departure from the Gold Box RPGs that made them successful, Dark Sun lives in the memories of its fans, and hopefully this video will convince more players to give it a try.

This video aims to also serve as a beginner’s guide to help you through the tribulations of Athas, in your grim quest to save the world…or what’s left of it!
