I dunno about dark in nature, but Clonk is somewhat like that, in that you mine and build things. Also, the mages where dark brown robes...

Sounds also like heroes of might and magic to me, but it could be lords of magic also... hmm..

Ok, I've been scratching my head on this one for about 5 years, on and off, so whoever could possibly remember this or find it, super kudos! Basically, the details are scarce :) I remember you played as some sort of a robotic or cart like object, and you had a hook that could grapple to the ceiling ...
