Darkest Dungeon: The Shieldbreaker Steam CD Key
Darkest Dungeon for PC, PS4, etc. is a turn-based RPG in a dark fantasy atmosphere. The production was developed by the Canadian Red Hook studio.
Darkest Dungeon takes place in a gloomy fantasy world, inspired by gothic novels and the works of H.P. Lovecraft. The campaign takes place mainly in the ruins of an old mansion and the huge dungeon system below it. This place was taken over by the forces of darkness as a result of the recklessness of the last lord of this land. During our adventures, we discover the past of his entire family and the truth about the filth that its members brought into this world.
In Darkest Dungeon, players mainly explore the dungeons full of monsters and traps. However, these expeditions were carried out in a way different from the standards of the RPG genre. The emotional state of the characters, not only their equipment, plays an important role here. The heart of the game is a system that simulates the psyche of the heroes. The party members are not unbreakable heroes and terrifying experiences have an impact on their emotional state, so while having fun they are forced to deal with stress and phobias. As a result, after a few expeditions, each subordinate has its own reactions and inclinations. Achieving success requires constant monitoring of the mental condition of the team, because if we do not take care of it, its members can panic, become paranoid, become depraved and even become insane. The mental state of the character also affects the behavior during adventures and interactions with comrades in arms. Combat in Darkest Dungeon on PC, PS4 etc. is played in a turn-based system. The right choice of formation plays a key role, and each move must be carefully considered, as deaths are final. The authors combined the old-school tactical depth with many more modern solutions, such as, for example, the mechanism of deriving counter. The monsters are not the only threat, and traps, party disputes, and darkness can be equally dangerous. The carried torches gradually fade, increasing the fear of the characters.
The Shieldbreaker is the game's second paid DLC, and the biggest addition that it brings to the game is a new demigod class, the Shieldbreaker. Apart from that, new trinkets are also introduced, as well as a new consumable item that lets you block any attack, as well as three new enemies that come to the forefront through a new random encounter while camping.
