You have a combat phase and a micro-management/upgrade phase. You are given a brief explanation of the happenings, 2 party members and a quick tutorial dungeon. Maybe an hour later or the next day but I will return for me delicious punishment’.ĭarkest Dungeon is a roguelike, turn based combat game. This leisurely hour of Darkest Dungeon wasn’t relaxing it was strenuous and cruel. The sheer wave of relief after completing a taxing run in one of Darkest Dungeons……well dungeons, is always a welcome feeling but also a release button. And yet I find myself unable to play it for long stretches. And you will do again and again and again. It’s that feeling of your foot plunging to the ground when an unexpected drop or declining step appears. This isn’t a holding hands with your new love speedy pitter-patter. And not the good heart palpitations either.


What am I going to do about you? There’s something about a game that gives me heart palpitations that I love.
