Darkest Dungeon - Update# 12, Town Events

by Couchpotato, 2014-03-08 07:01:58

Red Hook Studios has posted the next update for Darkest Dungeon with information about new towns events, talks about the game world, and mentions a new AMA.

$250k Stretch Goal Unlocked: Town Events

Our PayPal pledges are now above $2,000, which means the project has exceeded the $250,000 stretch goal!

Battle-weary or proudly triumphant, each time that you return to town after a quest, there is a chance that a Town Event can happen.  There are a wide variety of events, with a mixture of positive and negative consequences.

Most of the time, even bad events will have an upside. Mostly.

Examples of other events:

  • Alcohol Shortage! A missed shipment of hops leaves the town dry.  Stressed heroes will have to rely on other activities to bring them back down to earth.
  • Heat Wave! Increased chance of ABUSIVE afflictions on the next expedition. This could be good or bad...
  • Rumors of a Huge Bounty! Increased chance of recruiting Bounty Hunters while the rumor persists.
  • The First One's Free! The Nomad is having a sale on trinket purchases.
  • Missing Cargo Ship! A ship overflowing with treasures and supplies has gone missing near the Cove. Perhaps a quest to that dungeon will be more lucrative than usual.
  • And more!

Town Events will add flavor to the Hamlet experience, but they also will present you with interesting choices that may alter your plans.

Reddit AMA: Monday, March 10, 3pm PST/6pm EST

Join us for an AMA this coming Monday at 3pm PST/6pm EST!

We'll post the link on the Kickstarter page when it goes live. But for now, mark your calendars!
