Hardcore roguelike turn-based tactical RPG. Not much of a story and straight into battles one after another. Extremely challenging even for someone with good understanding of dnd system and more.

Dungeon rats is to AoD what Fallout Tactics is to Fallout. Well designed game, but Incredibly punishing combat leads to a puzzle-like challenge. Not for everyone but I'm loving it.

It's good, but turns out to be a game of long-term attrition management (rations). This means that even when you win fights, you have silently lost them due to taking too much damage, and thus running out of rations 5-6 fights down the road. This aspect of the game's design is frustrating. Here's the fix btw: Console comand: dlgadditem(10503,1000) . However, the game is well worth playing for the experience for a number of hours. Recommended.

It's a very fun game. Basically you are at the bottom of a dungeon and try to go up :) I liked the turn based combat. It's very similar to the Age of Decadance (it is in the same world anyway). However there isn't much story. Just entertaining encounters. So if you want a quick fix on turn based challenging combat, i think it's a game you should try.
A warning though, it's not an easy game so be ready to die from time to time. It's definitely not a Souls like, however you need to plan your character's build othwerise fight become too challenging.

A combat focused version of the AoD experience, the challenging achievements require an element of scum saving but there's lots of ways to explore and thrive in the deep combat system.

Very fun game if you like a challenge and tactical combat where every bit and scrap helps you succeed. Good complexity and story elements on top.

If you played Age of Decadence and enjoyed the combat, its a very challenging bullshit game I enjoyed. Definitely not a good idea to just try out randomly though.
