About the game
A gothic turn-based RPG focused on the psychological stress of adventuring. You hire heroes to form a party and explore the dungeons beneath your family estate. As stress builds up, heroes may act strangely or collapse, so they need rest and treatment in the hamlet. Dead heroes can't be revived, so every choice feels weighty.
Why we recommend it
A grim, tense turn-based dungeon crawl where you manage not only your heroes' health but their mental state too.
Good for — Great for: anyone who enjoys a dark atmosphere and ruthless strategic decisions
