Cutesy rougelike Knights of the Rogue Dungeon shadow drops on Switch

Texas-based Atooi shadow dropped its latest cutesy dungeon hopper, Knights of the Rogue Dungeon. The game features six unique dungeons, responsive controls, a solid 60 FPS average, a voxel art style, and more.

We wouldn’t blame you if you missed Atooi’s trailer dropping, revealing that the game has hit the Switch. Early adopters get a sweet deal of $8.99. After January 15, it will increase to $9.99, which is still a fair price compared to other games on the eShop.

Everything about this game seethes a level of charm to it, but of course, it’s a roguelike, so it’s not for everyone, but if you’re invested in games where progression means something with a strong visual style, we’re sure you could go with worse. Currently, the game is only available on the Switch, with a PC version seemingly on the way.
