Darkest Dungeon is a challenging gothic roguelike turn-based RPG about the psychological stresses of adventuring.

Reclaim Your Ancestor's Estate

Recruit, train, and lead a team of flawed heroes through twisted forests, forgotten warrens, ruined crypts, and beyond. You'll battle not only unimaginable foes, but stress, famine, disease, and the ever-encroaching dark. Uncover strange mysteries, and pit the heroes against an array of fearsome monsters with an innovative strategic turn-based combat system.

Core Features

  • The Affliction System – battle not only monsters, but stress! Contend with paranoia, masochism, fear, irrationality, and a host of gameplay-meaningful quirks!
  • Striking hand-drawn gothic crowquill art style
  • Innovative turn-based combat pits you against a host of diabolical monsters
  • Narration system to celebrate your successes...and failures
  • 16 (and counting!) playable hero classes, including Plague Doctor, Hellion, and even the Leper!
  • Camp to heal wounds or deliver inspiring speeches.
  • Rest your weary, shell-shocked characters in town at the Tavern or the Abbey to keep their stress in check.
  • Classic CRPG and roguelike features, including character permadeath, procedural dungeons, and incredible replay



Can you stem the tide of eldritch horrors erupting across your family’s ancestral estate?

Descend at your peril!

The perfect stategy game

Rating: 5/5 In short: A dark and gritty adventure that takes strategy gaming and risk management to new hights. Noteworthy: + Very fun but unforgiving core gameplay + Great replay value due to many "hero" classes and variations + An interesting dark narrative which is subtly interwoven with the gameplay + Sound design and voice acting is spot on (the quotes of the narrator will be forever imprinted into my memory) + Awesome and atmospheric art style (I love it!) + Great DLC which expand on the core game in interesting ways - Difficulty may be overwhelming at first Appendix: This is centainly NOT a game for casual gamers who are looking for a cheap thrill. The game teaches you that extremely fast.

Too hard for me...

Darkest Dungeon has an incredibly good setting and is very well implemented visually and audio. The narrator is great, unfortunately the audio thing repeats itself over time. The difficulty is really an annoying. But overall I can recommend it. Link to my Story Movie: https://youtu.be/wFbQGj7qWyI

Cheap, not challenging.

I've been playing this for a few days, and mostly enjoying it. Production quality is top notch. But I'm realizing that the game isn't challenging so much as randomly unfair for no reason other than to feel challenging. As an example, I just lost an entire party to heart attacks less than three battles into a dungeon against enemies that I've fought and beaten dozens of times before. There was literally nothing I could have done about it, they all just dropped one after another. I realized right there that I was done with this game. What a waste of money!
