Publisher Strategy First Inc. and developer Cinemax today announced a new action-adventure game, Traps of Darkness that will bring out an unknown dark side of PC gamers in April 2004. “Traps of Darkness is a twist on the classic action-adventure game,” says Steve Milburn, Director of Marketing for Strategy First Inc. “Gamers have the chance to play the role of evil and use their wits and skills to declare victory and eternal doom for mankind.”
Driven to please a dark lord, the evil minions of Necromania scramble to collect the keys necessary to free their dark master from his supernatural bonds and win his favor forever. Each despicable servant possesses inherent magical powers to aid them on their wicked quest to unleash a horrifying evil into the world and doom mankind.

- Seven unique minions of Ragnar to choose from; each equipped with deadly traps and unique powers
- Players improve the skills of their hero as they complete levels and gain experience
- Multiplayer mode brings new tactical options for players in fierce fights against 2–7 players over LAN or Internet
- Players lay traps and take advantage of the terrain (labyrinths) to achieve victory against numerous opponents and vermin that populate every level
- A powerful AI, diverse maps with random item spawning and combinations of dark competitors ensure long hours of diverse gameplay
- Players race to collect power boosts that increase combat abilities or temporarily grant powers to aid them in collecting the three pieces of the skull key
- The inherent randomness and frantic gameplay makes it impossible to win the same way twice
