This unofficial guide to Darkest Dungeon is perfect for those who are willing to discover the deepest secrets of the gloomy dungeons which spread under the ancient and hostile mansion. This mansion used to belong to a family of a name which is so sinister and primeval that it had been forgotten by the time and consumed by the evil forces.
The first chapters of this guide are covering the basics of the mechanics which rule the world of the DD. From them you will be able to obtain the basic knowledge which will help you to survive in this hostile world. You will know how to keep your heroes alive (heroes' health bar), you will see how fragile their minds are (stress mechanics) and you will be able to understand special effects that will influence your heroes sooner or later (status effects).
The second chapter of the guide focuses on the heroes' classes. There, you will find the descriptions of all the classes in the DD, along with their special abilities, flaws and merits. Additionally there are some special tips which will help you to prolong the lives of the heroes. The next chapter, which is also a bit shorter, depicts all the in-game beasts, rogues, demons, spawns and every other creature which can be encountered by your heroes. There are also detailed tips and tactics concerning the fighting with the elite bosses which command these deadly hordes.

The latter chapter is a bit longer. It consists of every piece of information that a hero needs to have at least the smallest chance to survive and to go back to the Town in one piece. This data is e.g. the description of the in-game missions, the dungeon exploration process, the fighting and the healing system.
The Darkest Dungeon is a debut of the Red Hook Studios. It tells the story of a mansion which was once conquered by the primeval and evil forces. As the last living member of the family, which still bears the law for the ruins, you will have to discover the secret, hidden in the dungeons, thus releasing the mansion from the fiendish spells.
