Dhux's Scar

About

Dhux's Scar is a Spanish RPG with a self-aware sense of humor. You play Elijah, a minor merchant who stumbles into a mess of cosmic conflicts after a morally dubious business deal. The story leans into chaotic twists and over-the-top stakes, balancing dark themes with goofy dialogue. Combat uses a turn-based system with standard RPG mechanics, but the real hook is watching Elijah navigate increasingly absurd predicaments. Critics praised its bold mix of grim fantasy and comedic undertones, though the plot leans into familiar tropes with a "so bad it's good" charm. Released in 2009, it gained a cult following for its unapologetic weirdness and translation efforts making it accessible to English speakers. PC only, with a runtime averaging 20-25 hours.
