About Darkest Dungeon II: Darkest Dungeon II is a turn-based RPG and strategy game: you form a party, equip your stagecoach and set off across a decaying landscape to avert the apocalypse. Four heroes and a stagecoach are all that stand between darkness and salvation. Beyond outside threats, the journey is decided by what happens within – heroes bond with one another or grate on each other‘s nerves, producing badly needed combat synergies or journey-ending dysfunction. A separate strategic mode, Kingdoms, has you defend a crumbling realm against incursions by new enemy factions, manage a persistent roster of heroes and gather resources; its progress is tracked separately from the Confessions core mode.

About these games

Darkest Dungeon

Darkest Dungeon is a challenging gothic roguelike turn-based RPG about the psychological stresses of adventuring. The player recruits, trains and leads a team of flawed heroes through twisted forests, forgotten warrens, ruined crypts and beyond, facing not only monsters but also stress, famine, disease and the ever-encroaching dark. There are 16 playable hero classes, including the Plague Doctor, the Hellion and even the Leper. Weary, shell-shocked characters can rest in town at the Tavern or the Abbey to keep their stress in check, and the game features character permadeath, procedural dungeons and high replayability.

SKALD: Against the Black Priory

SKALD: Against the Black Priory is a retro party-based RPG set in a grim-dark fantasy world of tragic heroes and Lovecraftian horror. The player leads a company of broken heroes from the shores of Idra, fighting tactical turn-based battles while the story branches through dialogue and choices. You build a character with a class, background and stats, develop them up to level 20, and cook or craft from recipes. Graphics are pixel art from thousands of hand-drawn tiles in a Commodore 64 palette, plus an optional CRT filter and the SKaDE tool for new adventures.

As We Descend

As We Descend is a strategy roguelike deckbuilder set in an apocalyptic world. Players assemble squads of units, each with its own cards that can be added, removed, and upgraded, and set out on dangerous expeditions against titanic enemies. Between descents they return to the feudal Vault-City, the last bastion of humanity, where they build alliances, gather resources, and roll dice to win over its inhabitants. Each expedition breaks through three biomes toward the core, with tactics adapted to enemy intents and units shifted between the Guard Zone and the Support Zone.

Nightmare Frontier

Nightmare Frontier is a tactical extraction looter in which you lead a band of Scavengers into a devastated West Coast City of an alternative 1900s setting. Shootouts are turn-based and fully deterministic, played on battlefields packed with interactables and hazards that you can use to chain your kills. Each Fear carried by a Scavenger summons its own Dreadweaver, and deeper districts raise the Nightmare Level for tougher fights and more valuable loot. Whatever you haul back to the Hideout is kept, but falling in battle means losing everything you carried.

The Last Spell

The Last Spell is a turn-based tactical RPG with roguelite elements in which you defend a city against hordes of deadly enemies. During the day you prepare your heroes, decide how to rebuild your Haven and position your defenses; at night you wipe out the monsters coming at your walls with a wide range of weapons and skills. Then you heal, level up and repeat until the Magic Seal is broken. A handful of strained heroes must protect the mages, and the Magic Circle must never be lost, or humanity is doomed.

Valiant Tactics

Valiant Tactics is a turn-based roguelite RPG in which every playthrough offers a fresh experience. You play a loyal knight who assembles a team of five adventurers, grows their power, equips them with mighty artifacts, and sets out to defeat the usurper who murdered the king and restore the kingdom. Combat has no hit-chance RNG: every attack lands, and enemy attacks do too. Terrain and weather shape each encounter, and decisions made in random events affect how the party fares.
