Tuque Games’ Dark Alliance is D&D for the impatient. It’s got the setting, characters, and language of D&D, but they’re draped over an action game that will see you fighting without ever worrying about dice rolls. Kill goblins, grab loot, admire your new cloak – it’s about the simple pleasures.

Though technically the third game in the Dark Alliance series, the slate has been wiped clean for its PC debut. Previously a top-down action RPG exclusively for consoles, Dark Alliance is now a third-person action game where clicks have been replaced by combos.
