Description




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 Greatest Team Management Simulation

My God, what a great game. Just like CD Projek Red is with the quality of games that they make it is the same with how Red Hook is with this game. I say this with no nostalgia or anything that sounds like Fanboy material, but I just cannot get enough of this game. To anyone that plays this do not worry about being good at it right away, experiment and just have fun with it because unless you are playing Stygian/Bloodmoon there is a ton of room for error. To the Devs I wish to thank you for bringing this game into existence and that I look forward to seeing how this game grows. Please add more content, continue to give options to fit our play style (I like having corpses as a challenge, but some do not please keep options like that open) and please grant us modding tools (I need to do more research if this is the case) so we can all pitch in to have this be the ultimate Dungeon Crawler experience like it deserves to be ^_^

Great game

I do not want to write long review, I just want to give this game 5 stars. Its wonderfully styled, dramatically voiced, immersly sound designed game. With simple looking yet deep game mechanics. The biggest complain of all players: you are loosing adventures and characters. Which is absolutly true. However all that is recoverable. You can't loose game because of this (unlike loosing main squad in X-Com...).

The game isn't to hard..for me.

This game is difficult, and unfair which is a major turn off for some. However nomatter what they have no game over for the save file so you could technically win through pure time alone. Wither that's fun is for the indivdual player to decide but personally I belive this game is to diffucalt. I personally have 200 hours in the game without looking at youtube videos or twitch streams and still haven't beaten the game due to the diffcualty, but even then all I need to do is grind and unlike darksouls or bloodborne, every grind is a completely new and random experience. P.S- F the hag

Amazing game!

Darkest Dungeon is a great game! The artwork, theme and game mechanics on their own almost make it worth the buy. I like the game a lot. The design is amazing! The comic graphics style and the lovecraftian theme are both high quality and it's amazing how well they work together. They give the game a special feel that I like. It just fits! The game mechanics, e.g. the combat system, are ingeniously simple and work well. Yes, the game is difficult, especially Level 5 upwards! After you found out what's important in the game, Level 1 and 3 is not that hard and very enjoyable. On the verge to Level 5 dungeons the difficulty level rises too steep for my taste. But after several approaches and managing to buy the appropriate armor and weapons level for my heroes, it became almost manageable for me. Level 5 Bosses, the Darkest Dungeon and the Siege Town Event are still very problematic, but I guess it has to be that way. The game is meant to be difficult! It's an outstanding game!
