An update of a Super Nintendo Entertainment System title, Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer is an old-school, turn-based dungeon-crawler. It's slow, inten🌠se, and unforgiving - all of which might be a turn off to gamers💃 weaned on modern titles - but for those that appreciate old-school sensibilities, Shiren the Wanderer offers dozens of hours of slow-burning fun.

Gamers control a wandering adventurer named Shiren, who is accompani🃏ed by his mouthy weasel Koppa. The two are on a quest to the Lair of the Golden Condor. This is all a good excuse to explore randomly generated dungeons, fight monsters, and snatch items. Players will explore caverns (that look like du🦹ngeons), forests (that look like dungeons), and mountain ranges (that look like…wait for it…dungeons).

The action and movement in this game are completely turn based, which makes for a slow game. The deliberate pace is somewhat necessary, since players have to be mindful about every step they take - a zig in the wrong direction can make the difference between escaping a dungeon and being devoured by a monsterღ that's way too powerful to defeat.
