Feb 22, 2019  Jake reviewed Tangledeep for the Nintendo Switch with a review code provided by the developer. His favorite character class was the Sword Dancer, who survived longer than anyone else. He never made.

Impact Gameworks has announced the Legend of Shara and Dawn of Dragons expansions for its roguelite RPG Tangledeep are now available for Nintendo Switch. Both expansions were released for the game’s PC version in 2019, with Legend of Shara being available for free to Switch owners. The trailers for both expansions can be viewed below.

Legend of Shara is a free expansion and includes a new story mode, self-contained dungeons called Wanderer’s Journey, remixed boss encounters, a thirteenth job class, and a raised level cap of 20. Dawn of Dragons will be purchasable via the eShop and will include more end game content, scenarios, bosses, and dungeons.

Tangledeep originally released on PC in 2018 before arriving on Switch in 2019. The game is a roguelike dungeon-crawler RPG that harkens to games from the 16-bit era.

Tangledeep combines the 16-bit graphics and polish of classic SNES-era RPGs with elements from roguelikes and dungeon crawlers to create a magical experience for players of all skill levels. Hello starshine the earth says hello. Trapped in underground villages with no memory of the world at the surface, you must survive an ever-changing labyrinth to discover what lies above.

Experience rich, tactical, turn-based gameplay as you explore a sprawling dungeon that’s different each time you play. Tangledeep features a customizable job system and hundreds of collectible items that allow you to approach each playthrough in a totally new way!THE SETTINGFor hundreds of years, people have lived in the safety of underground settlements and villages – where the only route to the surface is “Tangledeep,” a mysterious and ever-changing labyrinth. With memories of the surface world long forgotten, you set out for the labyrinth to discover what lies above. While its difficulty spikes can be a little tough at times (and the sheer amount of information presented quite overwhelming, especially to genre newcomers), it's impossible to not appreciate just how much has been crammed into Tangledeep's roguelike crevices.

From taming monsters and turning them into pets to the ever-changing layout of its dungeons, this is a roguelike RPG for players who yearn for a return to SNES games of old. It's smart, deep and rewarding, but be warned: this is an adventure designed almost exclusively for seasoned players.
