The structures are dark and medieval in style, with steep roofs and towers on rocky cliffs. The rocky cliffs are detailed with fine lines. The color scheme is black and gray, creating depth. Close to the viewer are rugged stone surfaces, leading to massive buildings with sloping roofs in the background.
