8.5/10 Really good game, i feel like its not for everyone though. You really need to understand what you need in a party early on and look up knowledge online because this game is full of knowledge checks. RNG is in a weird place some times it got me frustrated sometimes it got me excited when i got virtue. Overall I think its a really good turn based game with a good amount of grind.

if you like stardew valley, you need to give darkest dungeon a try. they're basically the same game considering how in both stardew and DD you start the game by receiving a large plot of land as inheritance from your deceased grandfather.

I hate this game with a passion, it will ruin your day, you will lose your jester due to 3 crits in a row and have the whole squad go insane. 10/10

Everyone and their dog has played this, so you most likely have played this to. In the event you haven't, it's great. I played about an hour of it a long time ago and couldn't get past the fact that everyone will most likely die. I know that's part of the game, but I just couldn't warm up to it. I came back to it and now love it. Remember you are leveling up your Hamlet (town) and that's where the persistence factors in. Remember, even if your best character died, you still have the Hamlet which is advancing.
