Darkest Dungeon is Red Hook Studios' gothic turn-based roguelike RPG, where you lead a roster of stress-afflicted heroes into procedurally laid-out dungeons. It is played mostly with the mouse, but a handful of keyboard hotkeys speed up skill selection, torch management, looting, and flipping between the map and inventory on a quest.
