Shadowy Contracts is set in a large open world inspired by the Dark Ages and sword-and-sorcery movies. It has a straightforward premise: “Take on contracts and eliminate targets for gold … or die trying!”

The gold you’ll earn from your missions can be used to purchase weapons, armor as well as effects or enchants. At the start of Early Access, 52 weapons, 38 armor sets, and 21 weapon effects/enchants will be available to players in this indie game. Of course, more will be added in the near future.

Furthermore, successful assassins can also use their revenue streams to hire and lead mercenaries into battle.

Here’s the official description:

In Shadowy Contracts, King Arthur ascends the throne in a world hurting from violence, poverty, and hardship. Not willing to sit and wait while things get better, our protagonist joins an assassin organization – coming to grips with an unexpected magical heritage in the process …
