Town Events

Released May 19, Town Events are events occurring in the Hamlet of The Darkest Dungeon. Town Events add variety to the overall campaign and also provide additional personality to the Hamlet itself! In some cases, the events are related to Quests. For example, the ALL SAINTS DAY event has a high chance to proc after successfully completing the Ruins Gather Holy Relics Quest. ALL SAINTS DAY sends the Abbey into a zealous celebration, and makes all treatments there free for that week!. We like this example as it helps answer a common community concern on the value of the various gather/destroy quests that we’ve had in the game for a long time, and have been criticized for their loss in value due to inventory restrictions.

Description

‘Town Events’ are designed to add variety to the Hamlet over the course of a campaign. Upon returning from an expedition, there is a chance for a thematic event to trigger in town – this functions akin to a deck of event cards. You can toggle the frequency of Town Event in the gameplay options. Generally, most events are positive so it is recommended that you set this at "plentiful".
