This early prototype build of the game is from December 1991 and was reportedly shelved due to Mark Cerny wanting developers to focus on character-driven titles.

You can download the rom dump by heading over to the Dark Empires entry on Hidden Palace, and you can also watch the game in action via the below video from Hidden Palace contributor MDTravis:

You can learn more about the development of Dark Empires in an extensive interview with Craig Stitt that Hidden Palace have also published.
