His game within this game is a rather simple path-drawing puzzle where you have to guide Yamada’s avatar through each five-square-by-five-square floor, stepping on each tile once to get a perfect clear. Every time he implements a new idea he gets from one of the many crazy characters who visit him, you have to test it out to see how it plays. You play as an overseer, watching Yamada make his game and testing it out for him. Yamada can’t make this game alone and this is where you come in. Thankfully, like so many other titles, it’s finding new life on Switch with a port that retains the charm and zaniness of the original version without those pesky free-to-play elements. Like many mobile games, this could have meant Dandy Dungeon would be lost to the ages, surviving only on those devices that could run it after the final update. Late last year, DMM shut the service down, though anyone who already had it could download an update that allowed them to play it on their device with microtransactions, a few dungeons, and a few other features removed. I gave it a 9.5 and if you’d like to try it out for yourself right now, you can’t. It combined roguelike elements with puzzle solving and ridiculous characters to make for an experience dramatically different than most other games clogging up the various app stores. Roughly two and a half years ago, Onion Games and publisher DMM released an absolute gem of a game in Dandy Dungeon: The Legend of Brave Yamada.
