New strategy roguelike Inkshade will drag you through a DnD-infused nightmare

If you’ve ever played much Dungeons and Dragons, you’ve almost certainly sat through a game in unsettling circumstances. Cramped around a table in a darkened room, unsure if that one friend in your group has mastered the roleplaying side of TTRPGs, or if their house is always this creepy. Studio Vezelle’s new roguelike Inkshade captures this perfectly. It’s best approximated as a tabletop strategy game played over and over in a puzzle house, and comes drenched in the same level of atmosphere that made Inscryption so compelling. Indeed, in a similar manner, your success here will be measured by progress both on and off the board.
