They’ll target your weakest party members, have pesky magic users and ranged attackers in the back where they’re harder to strike, inflict status ailments and more. Enemies usually come in groups of three to five and are every bit as smart as you are. You’ll need to use your heroes’ many different skills if you hope to have any chance of trouncing your opponents. Battles are turn-based, with each member of you and the enemy’s team lined up in a row standing across from one another. These can range anywhere from going through 90% of that particular dungeon’s map (whose layout is random each time) to fighting every group of enemies on the map or defeating a boss somewhere in the dungeon. Inside dungeons you’ll be tasked with a different objective to complete. After buying supplies such as food, torches to keep away the darkness, and curatives of all different kinds, it’s time to enter one of the games many different dungeons. A balanced team that can handle any situation is best, so understanding smart party composition is a must. On each quest you’ll be allowed to bring a total of 4 heroes with you at any given time -some are better for support, others absorbing damage and dishing it out. At the game’s central hub, heroes will arrive by stagecoach where you can freely choose however many you want and add them to your roster of heroes.

Darkest Dungeon gives you a total of 15 different classes of heroes to choose from, each with their own unique skills and playstyles. To do so you’ll need the help of whatever adventurers you can find. In this Gothic flavored roguelike RPG, you’re tasked with returning to your ancestral family estate and purging it of a foul, unspeakable evil unknowingly unleashed by one of your relatives. The 2015 poster child for Early Access done right, Darkest Dungeon finally makes its debut on Nintendo Switch. Despite your best efforts, death will soon come to you, caressing your party in her icy embrace one hero at a time. A swipe of the blade from a bloodthirsty bandit puts one of your fellow heroes at Death’s Door. Eldrich horrors of every kind stand in the way of your progress, poisoning you with their corrosive vomit and shrieking cries of insanity. Slowly trudging through darkened corridors, you hear voices of terror echoing inside the depths of your mind.
