Re: Unusually art games

Darkest Dungeon!

If you like dungeon crawlers / hardcore-permadeath / lovecraftian horror, it's perfect. The voiceovers and plot and all the flavor text are amazing. All the gameplay is aimed toward making everything creepier too (your characters have Stress bars, and when they hit max Stress, they literally start going insane and killing each other/themselves)

It's Early Access on Steam right now, but worth it

I've had my eye on it, but not having played it I wonder what exactly makes it an art game in your opinion?

Re: Unusually art games

It's not so much that it has a story or plot (it kinda sorta does but it's not the main point), but the atmosphere is so well done and so very much the focus of the game - and the gameplay is support OF that atmosphere as opposed to the other way around - that it just feels like a homage to Lovecraftian horror first and foremost, just done in the form of a game

It's not really something you'd expect out of a 2D sidescrolly turn-based dungeon crawler, but out of all the games I've played, it punches you the hardest in the face with sheer atmosphere

Worth a look then! Pity I don't have the cash :(

This guy basically narrates the whole time, and all the art is like that!

If you try to send Stressed/underleveled characters into dungeons, they'll go but you'll get speech bubbles being all "I beg you - no!" "I wouldn't last a minute!" "It's suicide!" then your whole party goes slowly insane...
