Red Hook Studios' Darkest Dungeon is one of the hardest yet most enjoyable games I've ever played—an experience that's been bolstered over time by its range of neat player-made mods. The base game is subject to a 60 percent discount on Steam till Friday, and there are a number of cool new class mods which make it worth checking out.
Steven's already sung the praises of Dark Souls' iconic sun-praiser, while I enjoyed sending Final Fantasy 7's Tifa Lockheart into the depths of the darkest dungeons. Now, Sadbady's Corvian Knight adds a cool bleed-blighting, ACC debuffing class that lets players heal over time and also leverage a deadly low HP maneuver. Moreover, Exaelus' Harbinger Class Mod adds a character that echoes "The Lich King from Warcraft, Witch King from Lord of the Rings and Night King from Game of Thrones."
Marvin Seo's Lamia Class Mod is well worth a look, and while I've not had the chance to play Balgin Stondraeg's The Twilight Knight, it comes with some rich lore and a host of camping and combat skills.
As for Darkest Dungeon's discount, it's going for £7.59/$9.99 with 60 percent off. Its Ancestral Bundle—which includes the base game, its soundtrack and its Crimson Court DLC—is also on sale for £16.89/$23.37 with a 49 percent reduction. Darkest Dungeon is discounted on Steam now through Friday, October 6.
