Among popular roguelike releases, Darkest Dungeon provides a unique twist to the turn-based fantasy genre with a rather grim setup. Taking place in the dungeons beneath a mansion the player inherited, Darkest Dungeon needs groups of adventurers to brave its depths and defeat threat after threat - that is until they lose their morale or die at the hands of gruesome monsters. Unlike other turn-based titles, Darkest Dungeon has permadeath and an active Stress mechanic, giving teams penalties when they witness or get affected by gruesome events.
