The primary new Shiren The Wanderer recreation in 14 years is headed to PC

Numerous video games within the Shiren The Wanderer (and Thriller Dungeon) collection have been really helpful to me again and again, however I’ve but to play any of them. I possible will not play the following, both. Shiren The Wanderer: The Thriller Dungeon Of Serpentcoil Island is headed to PC through Steam quickly.

The Thriller Dungeon Of Serpentcoil Island is far akin to the earlier video games within the collection. These are conventional roguelikes, by which you head right into a randomised dungeon cut up throughout many flooring and try and delve ever deeper utilizing the assets you discover alongside the way in which. It is also obtained some neat on-line options, comparable to the power to rescue or be rescued by different gamers must you collapse on a specific ground, so to proceed with that character.

Serpentcoil switches up the setting, introduces considerably rudimentary 3D graphics, and modernises the UI a little bit, however ought to in any other case be deeply acquainted to anybody who has performed earlier video games within the collection.

The final Shiren recreation was The Tower Of Fortune And The Cube Of Destiny, which you would be forgiven for considering was a comparatively current recreation, given it launched on PC and Swap in 2020. Alas, no, it first launched on Nintendo DS in Japan in 2010, and within the west for the Vita in 2016. That makes Serpentcoil Island the primary new recreation within the collection for 14 years.

Serpentcoil Island additionally launched on Swap again in January of this yr, which implies you’ll find out each element concerning the recreation in the event you’re so inclined. It was fairly properly obtained, with Famitsu giving it 38 out of 40.

Why will not I play it? As a result of I discover my endurance for conventional roguelikes has lessened, lately. I may need plunged into my final procedural dungeon. No matter urge for food I do have left, I am saving for the much more formidable and wild Caves Of Qud, which is due a sophisticated 1.0 launch on December fifth. I do proceed to get pleasure from listening to others wax lyrical about these video Games although, so in the event you assume I am wrongheaded and I ought to give Shiren his due, please pen a passionate ode within the feedback.
