On top of the core game itself, where you’ll explore, loot, and try to stay alive there are also multiple types of dungeon challenges, pets, daily challenges, and more so if you’re into the core experience you’ll be able to get some serious miles out of it. Where things aren’t so good I’d say primarily rests with the menus and interfaces. Obviously designed with PC gamers in mind, who have access to a keyboard and mouse, movement, navigation, and even the inventory screens take getting used to and calling them cumbersome would be generous. They do get the job done with some practice but not helping matters is perhaps having too many options. It’s overwhelming when you’re trying to get started and there’s simply a lot to take in. If you take it slow, experiment, and try things out you can begin to understand it all but though the game has a tutorial it feels like that only scratches the surface for the most part. If you’re willing to put in the time and get accustomed to Tangledeep there’s a rewarding and unique experience to be had. I can’t say I’ve played anything quite like it on the Switch and the sheer variety of options available to you means a ton of longevity, you’ll just need to get over the hump before it clicks. If you don’t mind the turn-based pacing, and can show some patience it has a lot to offer.
