Unsettling but rewarding roguelike RPG - Darkest Dungeon Review
Darkest Dungeon is a role-playing game that delves into the psychological stress of dungeon exploration, where managing your team's sanity is crucial. With Lovecraftian and Gothic art styles creating a chilling atmosphere, this game offers a challenging yet gratifying experience akin to renowned roguelike RPGs like Into the Breach and Risk of Rain.
In this dungeon crawler, players lead a team of flawed heroes facing not only monsters but also their own fears and anxieties. The Affliction System adds depth, impacting gameplay as heroes struggle with paranoia and anxiety. Darkest Dungeon's dark narrative and turn-based combat pay homage to classic tabletop RPGs, emphasizing the psychological toll of adventuring into the unknown.
