The Graphics

The graphics are having a nice detailed feature, but unfortunately, not so creative on the design of the missions. (Yeah there is the Mass media platform, like in every MMORPG and a Platform for the missions, where there is a lack of creativity. The fact that the "enemy is different in every district'' does not hide the fact that the rest stays the same.) . 
But You can manage the Camera options. 
If I would have to rate it in a scale of 10/10
I would give 7 for the details, 4 for the creativity
 This one has a nice realistic preview of the actual game

Controls

As the majority of Android RPGs the movement controller is on the left (But You can change the location).
And the Ability/special power deck is on the right,
 You can only have 4 special powers
Oh and see that Round thing in the Middle? that is Your life . Only good thing is if You kill enough monsters You can use the Thirst ability to boost up Your life or use Blood packs, what You can buy in the Vampire District


Play

Same as controls also the Game play is just average,Yes in the Beginning it is interesting, but with time, because of the lack of change it becomes boring.
You have 2 platforms, where one is the Mission district 
Where You can earn EXP and Loots and Minions- those dudes on the right.
[ In the beginning I did not understood Why my Vampire had an energy bar and why there are minions, but then I got it!-
 By just doing the missions and clearing the city it takes a hell lot of time to level up, but with the help of minions You can do the trick faster .
 An the Players District, where You can meet other players
Trade, purchase Outfits (Not useful as they don't boost anything, but costs a lot of the coins), guilds and PVP (What don't work!!!and as I checked A lot of players are complaining about it.)


And Basically it becomes boring with time. So there are 2 options- Hack it or You uninstall it and install it back after some time(If You are Signed up, You will be saved in the server and be able to continue where You left )

Plot Story 

In the First Play moments You actually find the Plot interesting, It is a mix of like resident Evil, Hellsing(The manga)
You are a Vampire Who fights Bad and is looking for the "Father Figure" But the father it goes the more You understand that in  the Plot and game construction is no goals. Just a messy mash up.
I actually had the feeling the developers rushed the game release and have no plans of making  the game more up to its potentials,

Keeps disconnecting It won't download the update and just keeps saying"you have been disconnected from server" whats goin on? 

This is what an action RPG for mobile should feel like. Spacetime has done pretty much everything right with this and Pocket Legends. It's hard to find a good game for mobiles. Harder to find one that so openly drop-in multiplays. Spacetime has done that again, now. Sharp controls that are in all the right spots, good graphics, and engaging gameplay. What are we missing?

Needs updates, but great game! I love this game I've been playing it for about 6 months now, and it's still one of my favorites. However, once you've completed the last level, that's it. You then just play them all over again, which I don't mind but, I would like to get new levels, challenges, graphic updates, and new powers. Other than that the game is great. 
 
 
I am not saying Dark Legends is Bad, but After playing Arcane Legends,I am disappointed. When I got it, it was still a fresh one so, It is understandable that there are problems and so, but the developers claim to have a lot of rewards, You would expect more.
Still have my hopes in it!
But for the try out, it is fun, for dark Gloomy nights.
