[There is also a software giveaway! Akiba Research Institute's editorial staff played "Dangled" (Nintendo Switch), a new side-scrolling 2D action x roguelike game!

Dung Lead, a new 2D action x roguelike game in which players explore a dungeon that changes shape each time they enter it and aim for the deepest level, is now available on Nintendo Switch! Akiba Research Institute's editorial staff member A tried to find out what it's all about.

Dangled Lead" is a 2D action game developed by Korean company Team Horay. A peaceful village has been destroyed by a "mysterious dungeon" that suddenly appeared, and its inhabitants have been sucked into the dungeon. There, a new adventurer sent by the kingdom rebuilds the village while searching for the missing villagers. ...... is the story of the game.

The player, a new adventurer, must search for the missing villagers by exploring the dungeon, whose structure changes each time he or she enters.

The system is a side-scrolling 2D action game, but the structure of the dungeon changes each time the player plays. Also, when the player gets a game over, experience is accumulated, but all items and money picked up in the dungeon are forfeited ......, which is the basic principle of roguelike games. Players can challenge the dungeon, which changes each time, over and over again to reach the deepest level!

The visual aspect of the game is characterized by retro dot pictures!

The dots are so finely drawn and move so smoothly that they are very comfortable.

The enemies in the dungeon are also comical. The enemies in the dungeon are also comical and cute. However, the attacks are very hard, and if you can't build up a strategy pattern, you will be easily defeated.

This very good tempo is a characteristic of this work, and in some cases, you can be killed instantly within a few seconds of starting. Is it just me or does the very light treatment of the protagonist's life make you laugh more than get angry?

The game has an exquisite balance in that you can easily attack the dungeon as many times as you like, just like a snack, and it is hard to find the end of the game! It's addictive fun.

As you conquer the dungeon, you discover a villager who has disappeared!

Send them back to the surface and rebuild the village little by little. Depending on the villagers, new facilities may be created in the village.

The more facilities you have, the better you will be able to attack dungeons, including a "training hall" where you can improve your status by spending points earned through experience and a "store" where you can purchase items.

As you die, return to the surface, gradually raise adventurers, and repeat the challenge ......, you will gradually become able to defeat even the strongest enemies. In particular, when you are able to defeat the Minotaur, a powerful enemy in the early stages of the game, you will feel an indescribable sense of accomplishment ...... in your heart.

But beyond that, however, an even more powerful mid-boss awaits!

Without defeating a boss so huge that it covers the entire screen, you cannot advance to the depths of the dungeon! Find a way to get past the boss!

In the dungeon, there are not only enemy monsters, but also human beings who live in the dungeon.

There are innkeepers who will fill your strength and hunger, stores that sell powerful items, and even mysterious medicines that you can take. There is also a doctor who will give you a mysterious medicine. You may also find mysterious facilities such as pedestals where you can offer items or pots where you can synthesize items.

You may also occasionally find treasure chests where you can get valuable items, weapons, or money, or you may encounter traps that attract monsters.

The game is a game of "one step at a time," and you have to win the dungeon search and restore peace to your village!
