    Darkest Dungeon is a superb game and is well suited for the iPad. It's the kind of game you can drop almost any amount of time into and have fun. I've played both quick, twenty-minute spurts to tackle a single quest as well as some hours-long play sessions where I settled into the couch to really dig in and make some progress. Combat is fun and challenging and rewards good planning—picking the right mix of characters to go in—as well as good turn-by-turn decision making. The ability to upgrade and improve your town as you go adds a nice sense of permanence to what is otherwise a constantly shifting mix of characters. The bottom line is that if you enjoy role-playing games centered on smart, tactical combat Darkest Dungeon is a must-buy.

    A rich, tough, ingenious dungeon crawler that's a pain to play in (mostly) all the right ways.

    Darkest Dungeon visits fresh horrors upon unseasoned newcomers, but behind its grim facade is a fascinating dungeon crawler.

    This game had everything for me to like it, a little bit of lovecraft, a little bit of rogue like, a small piece of turn based combat and some rpg features. Unfortunately it didn't comply with the hype, it is not easy to play on ipad (maybe that is the main problem) and I get tired playing for long. I don't really get into the game although I tried for many hours.
    I have to admit that even if it is not the game I was expecting it is enjoyable and the mechanics are good enough (and gets better little by little).
    Anyway I cannot recommend the game unless you are fan of the genre, and even so, I would say to play on other platform.    … Full Review »
