Our take on Dark Quest
The party is limited to 3 characters, making coordination among a small group central to the dungeon battles.
What is Dark Quest?
Dark Quest is a remastered, turn-based dungeon crawler about a small band of heroes confronting a sorcerer beneath the village of Darkwood.
Players control up to 3 characters, each with distinct abilities, and combine their strengths against orcs and undead. The sorcerer can summon the party to a sphere of judgment, where they must face a deadly game involving his magic. Gold found during adventures can be spent in the village on potions, weapons, and spells. Led by a barbarian, the party descends into the dungeon to stop the sorcerer’s minions and end the threat to the surrounding land.
