The app has been rebuilt from the ground up in order to tailor the experience within Legends Of The Dark to each player. For good or ill, the app is the centre of the experience within Descent: Legends Of The Dark.ĭescent: Legends Of The Dark App // Fantasy Flight Games An App Driven Experienceĭuring a designer interview (watch that below!) they went into great detail about the app and how integrated it is into the experience. You'll still have to manage your fatigue during encounters but there is a focus on this offering variety and action economy rather than simply dooming you. Instead, you use fatigue as a way of flipping between two sides of your character sheet and using your weapons.

One of the coolest things about the game is that you don't rest anymore and waste an action. Playing the heroes in Legends Of The Dark has also been revamped. I assume this has all been done to make it bright and poppy but the choice of icons and the way it has been laid out seems somewhat 'kiddy' in appearance. I'm not sold on the graphic design though which looks like it has been drawn from a mobile game. I like the variety on offer and it really shows off what's fun and interesting about the world of Terrinoth. I was immediately taken by the character design that we're seeing here. These choices reward you for taking direct routes but you'll also find ways to reward yourself for meandering between these routes. As you play you'll go down specific paths thanks to the decisions you make through your app-driven quests. You'll be able to swap out skills and powers in order to make a character which fits the situation. Unlike with previous editions, however, you will be able to change things if you don't like how your path is progressing. Much like in previous versions of Descent, you'll be starting off following a straight road but you'll soon branch off and be able to unlock specialisations which will make the character your own. All of this is played out through their Blood & Flame campaign which they say is going to take around fifty hours to complete.ĭescent: Legends Of The Dark Hero Cards // Fantasy Flight GamesĮach of the characters that you play as in Legends Of The Dark is unique and features plenty of room for customisation as they grow and develop.

Much like in previous editions of Descent, you'll be playing as a band of heroes from the world of Terrinoth who have been drawn together in order to stop some terrible foe from dominating the land. Descent: Legends Of The Dark Trailer // Fantasy Flight Games
