As I said earlier, the story of Tactics begins and ends in the same places as the show and the new details added are very inconsequential and feel like they only serve to pad the length of the game. The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Tactics should absolutely not be played until after watching the series, but therein lies an inherent problem.

While this is serviceable to get the gist of Netflix series so far, it is an absolute disservice to the grand sense of scale and stunning visual sequences the show offers. Tactics also uses a few comic book style cinematics to convey the more complex story elements, but these are pretty sparse throughout the game.


The bulk of the story is told through dialogue boxes while on the overhead map or in the grid based levels. The plot of the first season of the Netflix show is basically retold in Tactics, with a few new minor details added in for the game.

The series launched to critical praise and accolades which eventually spun out to its very own tie-in video game, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Tactics. The Dark Crystal: The Age of Resistance is a 10 episode Netflix series that takes a look into the fictional world of Thra before the events of the film. After years of toiling through development hell, Jim Henson’s passion project, The Dark Crystal, finally returned to screens.
