Games where you can play as demons?

[SixDead]

I have a fetish for Demons. Mighty infernal beings, enemies of all good, lead by their Unholy Sovereign. It started when I discovered world of Fantasy at age 9 and played Heroes of Might and Magic 3 at the first time, namely Heroes Chronicles campaigns. Inferno faction seemed for me so cool, so edgy, I started to consider myself a satanist. At age 9. And it lasted for years, I had been roleplaying amoral murderers in RPGs, listened Black Metal, pretended I feel sick in Churches and so on. Years later I was cured from this by medieval music and Dragon Age: Origins, but that is another story.

So I feel nostalgic about those times, and want to find games where you can play as demons, but proper ones, not some traitors and "demons but they are good guys". Examples:

Disciples: Sacred Lands and Disciples 2: Dark Prophecy

Spoiler

A game where demons done right. They are creatures of Evil and Hatred, unleashing their might on the mortal world for Bethrezen's glory. I don't count the third game, because you play there as some traitor emo who fell in love with angel. It also have disgusting anime art, I became full anime-hater after this. Years later my anime intolerance was somewhat softened after nutmegs trip, but that is another story.

Heroes of Might and Magic 3

Spoiler

A game that corrupted my young mind. As I know, there aren't proper demon campaigns, only few maps for Restoration of Erathia, but that is enough. I don't count Heroes IV, because they mixed demons with undeads, and I hate undeads after Arthas killed my dude Illidan in Warcraft 3.

Heroes of Might and Magic 5

Spoiler

Cool demons, but in the Inferno campaign you are playing as... fucking elv! *vomit sounds* and he is a traitor, and he is a good guy, fuck him. At least game have one scenario map with a proper Demoness hero.

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic

Spoiler

Main character is a son of the Demon Lord and he is possessed with hot succubus. You can choose to be a good guy, save the world and shit, but staying true to your purpose and fullfilling the prophecy by freeing your father is more interesting option. In my headcanone, demonic religion of Ashan have its own Trinity: The Father (Kha-Beleth), The Son (Dark Messiah) and The God-Spirit (Urgash, Dragon of Chaos).

Maybe Warcraft 3 can be mentioned, 'cause I remember there was fan-made campaign about Burning Legion.

Please post more games with demons you know!

Hail Satan, but remember, that satanism is a lame bullshit invented by american gypsie in 60s.

Overlord and Dungeon Keeper?

 

[Nekot-The-Brave]

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

 

[SixDead]

Overlord and Dungeon Keeper?

Overlord looks fun. It was made by Age of Wonders guys?

 

[SixDead]

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

Yeah, forgot to add this one. But during the kickstarter campaign I sweared I will never play this if they will not add ratfolk playable race, they didn't.

 

[Nekot-The-Brave]

Total War: Warhammer III, lets you play as 4 different factions of demons.

 

[Odoryuk]

Fallen Lords: Condemnation

 

[Poseidon00]

Demon's Crest is not a bad game at all, and is one of the best looking games on its native system, in my opinion. Soundtrack is pretty good too.

There is a demoness main character in Sacred Gold as well.

 

[Catacombs]

Solium Infernum

 

[Nifft Batuff]

Baldur's Gate 3.

 

[Blutwurstritter]

Warlords Battlecry III has daemons as playable race.

 

[SixDead]

call of duty, medal of honor

Didn't know they had Israel campaigns.

 

[Dr1f7]

Age of Fear 2 has a demon campaign, it's very good



also that new spellforce TBS game just released a demon faction dlc but i know nothing about the game

 

[Dr1f7]

oh also dota 2 has like 5 demon heroes that you can play as and they're all cool if ur into that kind of game

 

[Peachcurl]

I think "King's Bounty: Dark Side" has one demoness protagonist.

It's the weakest entry in that series though.

(for completeness sake I guess succubus games are kind of a whole subgenre in the adult section of gaming, not what we are looking for here tho)

 

[SixDead]

Age of Fear 2 has a demon campaign, it's very good

Who is the publisher? Can't see game

Here's the dev site on steam.

Makes sense
I thought game is blocked in my country, but it just didn't upload

Litil Divil (1993)

A little devil named Mutt is a rather lazy character who prefers to do nothing in his own cozy part of the underworld. However, his luck changes when he is chosen as the hero who must venture into a mysterious Labyrinth in the overworld and retrieve the Pizza of Plenty from there, so that his demonic friends will have enough capers and anchovies to eat.

Demon pops out to the store for his mates - game at 11.



Goat Simulator (2016)

You control a goat who's free to do all kinds of things - including becoming Satan's personal black goat of DOOM!

 

[d1r]

Succubus

A proper game for an edge lord like you.

 

[Kabas]

Does the word "card game roguelike" or something like this causes you physical pain?
If it doesn't then i would like to add Monster Train and Erannorth Reborn/Chronicles.

There is also plenty of gameplay mods for Doom that allow you play as demons like Naku-Naru, Bring Your Own Class or those overpowered Baron/Revenant mods.

 

[Kabas]

Also, in Conquest of Elysium 5 you can play as a Demonologist, a Raksharaja, and some other factions who can summon demons.
Dominion games have a bunch demonic factions too obviously.
