Full review: https://thegamehoard.com/2026/05/08/picking-up-steam-our-darker-purpose-pc/ Our Darker Purpose has a stylish dark look and a soundtrack that suits its twisted school setting, but the rogue-like action isn’t quite fleshed out enough to make the required repeat runs that interesting. At its heart is a simple fighting system that involves smart movement and learning enemy patterns to survive, but the upgrade system, even when in your hands when it comes to leveling up, is mostly about straightforward improvement which means it’s rewarding to get what you can but also makes runs mostly differentiated by your power level rather than new approaches to the action. Effective boss design and the feeling you can always be working towards useful upgrades through combat and exploration make it work even though the climbs through Edgewood become a bit tedious, the game stretching its pool of content a bit thin with the enforced repetition.
