![]() It’s not difficult to learn the system, but seeing that you tend to have adventurers coming and going all the time, it’s very complex and doesn’t get dull. It’s a roguelike dungeon-delver that has a strategic turn-based battle system that hearkens back to oldskool tactics and RPGs. What is Darkest Dungeon? Slice, slice, slice!ĭarkest Dungeon is a conglomeration of a lot of gaming elements, which is one of its strong points. Note: Non-Kickstarter folks can pick up a copy on Steam starting tomorrow, February 3rd. I don’t know if the team has a lot more features in mind on down the line, but what is there is extremely challenging and very fun. I know I’m not anywhere done with it yet!Īs far as early access games go, and I’ve played a lot of them, Darkest Dungeon feels very close to a polished release. ![]() I got my early access copy last week, and spent about 5 hours with this game over the weekend (which looking at my Steam records, you know that’s pretty good). The added bonus of having three of my four party members verbally abusing each other up until the point where they all died was funny too.Last year, I helped fund the indie game Darkest Dungeon through Kickstarter.

Then I get unlucky and my Vestal gets killed due to bad turn order, but hey, I can now run away so all is not lost right. ![]() However because the party composition is okay and I have a Vestal with divine comfort I am able to get through most fights by repeatedly bringing people back from death's door, and things don't look too bad.
