    I made a video about this game a few months ago, and I actually interviewed the director. It turns out, he had a huge hollywood deal lined up for a movie, and they were getting offers from publishers like Activision and THQ. Then the financial crash hit and everyone pulled out, so they just kinda went "ahh shit, release what we have", and that's how we got Darkest of Days. It's more or less a demo that they put together in order to get publisher's attention, not the product they ever intended to release. As for why it got taken down, he kind of implied he forgot the game was even available in the first place, so it probably has something to do with the old company not really existing anymore.

    This game still holds a special place in my heart. You probably already know this, but you can access a secret level by going over to the wooden door in your base after that Russian guy shoots Dr Koell and hold the action button to unlock it and you go there after Dexter asks what to do. In addition, by jumping on the heads of the prisoners at the German Prison camp, you can jump onto the train car and escape the boundaries where you can fall off the world and reveal the skybox is actually the picture of a suburu by a field.

      SAME! I remember watching a literal 1-2 mins of it when I was younger and falling in love with it because of possibility to travel and visit different battles (I didn't see the future-weapons-in-a-historical-battle part so I thought this was a cool historically accurate game) and only now I see that this game is trashy lol. The dissapointment.

    They modelled the Mosin with a bayonet mounted to the bottomme of the barrel, the Mauser rifle with the bolt handle sticking out about 20 meters and the baseline C96 is full auto.

      Even if the ball doesn't go through the armor the kinetic energy may still kill you. It's also likely since 1850s and 1860s US Army rifles were 58 caliber.

    Oh my god I remember this game! A friend and I played the demo back in the day. I'm pretty sure he downloaded it initially because all the screenshots showed the civil war levels and he had always wanted to play a civil war shooter. We were very surprised when the time travel stuff started happening.
