Darkest Dungeon got a free total conversion with Black Reliquary

Darkest Dungeon is a game for people who can't tell the difference between challenging and frustrating.

And yes, the RNG is completely broken. I once had a run where I lost all party members expect one.
I kept on going and she somehow survived almost ten encounters before finally biting the dust (the healing ability helped a little bit). And the refusal of the devs to make an actual easy mode doesn't make things any better.

It is truly a shame, because the look and feel of the game are awesome.

Hibernaculum is a gross looking retro-inspired sci-fi dungeon crawler

This game looks awesome (in a grotesque, messed up way). Really a shame that it's a KS game, I really hope they reach their goal and actually deliver it according to plan. However when I look at their goal it doesn't seem like something that will keep them financially afloat until the planned release period (late 2025.)

I think the biggest problem with their KS is that they have no demo and a lack of footage with more action in it.

Ok.......this is definitely something quite different.

I wonder on what drugs the developer was on, because I would like them too. :whistle:

I usually love co-op games and this seems to be a good one, but I just can't get over the art style.

Competitive tactics game Duelyst is being revived with Duelyst II

Aw man, Duelyst was one of my favorite games. The blend of careful tactical positioning and wisely managing your deck of cards made for a pretty unique game. Not to mention that the soundtrack and look of the game were awesome.

I was sad when the original Duelyst was shut down, but this news made my day. :grin:
