A key feature that is unique to Darkest Dungeon is players get to recruit multiple heroes and have to manage each hero’s stress level. Heroes then must be recruited to vanquish the evil back to where it came. Players find a portal that releases evil creatures into the world upon investigation of the mansion. If you are a diehard turn-based fan, then do not worry about the real time battles because the game has integrated an auto-resolve feature to keep you in the strategic mode.ĭarkest Dungeon has players manage a group of heroes to explore a variety of dungeons below a gothic mansion that the player has inherited. Players must also balance diplomacy, economy, public order, and war in each turn they make. Some lands will provide better horses and other provide more stone for infrastructure. There will be many factions looking for the same thing and all must battle for valuable cities to unlock much needed resources to win. In the turn-based side of Shogun 2 players will run a Japanese Dynasty aiming to take over all of Japan. The game has very balanced factions and units with nothing feeling too powerful or weak which is a common occurrence in other titles in the series.

Shogun 2 is probably the most refined in the series in terms of mechanics. Running the country and making moves on the strategic map are done in a turn-based system, but the actual battles are done in real time. Total War is an amazing series that brings turn-based and real time strategy together.
