About
Shiren the Wanderer: The Mystery Dungeon of Serpentcoil Island
After
receiving a vision of a mysterious girl held captive by a terrible monster,
Shiren and Koppa make their way to Serpentcoil Island—a distant isle rumored
to be the lost stronghold of treasure-hoarding pirates.
To brave
the many dangers that await them, Shiren and Koppa must traverse complex
dungeons filled with hostile monsters, hidden traps, and useful items. All the
gear and experience Shiren accumulates will be lost if he collapses during
exploration, so beware of rushing in unprepared! Rescue the mysterious girl
and uncover the mystery that clouds Serpentcoil Island.
The
forthcoming release for Nintendo Switch marks the series' latest mainline
entry to come to the West since Shiren the Wanderer: The Tower of Fortune and
the Dice of Fate was released on PlayStation®Vita in 2016 and then on Nintendo
Switch in 2020. While preserving the traditional gameplay, this installment
introduces new elements and 3D graphics to create a fresh and exciting
adventure.
About the Shiren the Wanderer Series
Shiren the Wanderer series of roguelike RPG games began with the 1995 release
of Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer for the Super Famicom in Japan.
Players venture into a "Mystery Dungeon" that changes each time they enter. To
succeed, they need to rely on their wits, experience, and creative thinking to
overcome monsters, avoid perilous traps, and conquer the dungeon. Players who
run out of energy during their journey will lose all of their possessions
including items, money, and gear, and must start again at level one. Players
will experience a thrilling and tense adventure with unexpected events and
risks that cannot be redone.
