It’s a lot of fun and I have spent the better half of about two hours playing it the first time. You can also do this with weapons and armor to stash them away for your next run through the dungeon and give you an even better advantage. You just need the shopkeep to fish them up when you find them. You can buy these items with gems you find in the dungeon. In the beginning, you will locate a shopkeeper who you can later buy items to help you. When you enter the submarine dungeon, you are stripped of all weapons and armor and are in the hub of the dungeon. Trying to reach the bottom can be quite the challenge. The Dungeon is a fun add-on that gives the game hours of more content and gameplay. They have added more than 20 new items, improved the gameplay, and added a new randomized dungeon. Sadly, I have not started the new game yet but I may leave a small review down in the comments about it when I get the chance. There is a New Game+ mode that has new items, enemies, and challenges. Two-player co-op is available on Steam remote play, so you don’t have to always wait for your friend to come over to play together. Since this is a PC release from a Switch game, they have added on some new elements to make it worthwhile. The Club was my go-to because of its charged slam ability to destroy groups of enemies. They also have different swing styles, with the spears being able to be thrown, and the wands having different spells, giving you a wide number of options to vanquish the undead. Skippy also comes with five unique weapons to clobber his foes, a sword, club, axe, spear, and wand are at your disposal with unique types to be found all around the kingdom. The body parts can be found by killing enemies, completing quests, or for the golden armor, forging them in the treasury. If you were to fully equip the zombie outfit, its special property is that no zombies in the game will attack you, but with the tradeoff that it has the least amount of heath of all the body parts. Some give more health, some allow for a special attack, and some full sets give a special bonus. Skippy himself has a very unique attribute to him since he’s a skeleton, he can swap his head, torso, and feet out with over 100 different body parts. They’re well detailed and the animations are solid even though they are limited to the Paper Mario style the world resides in. Zombies, Knights, Birds, Goblins, and more will be encountered throughout your journey with some enemies having variants to them, even if it only seems to me to be a color change. It’s not overbearing in the way you approach them, but it keeps the flow mixed instead of it being just a hack and slash type game. The enemies in the game pose their own challenges and required strategies to defeat them. Returning to them at a later time, it’s easier to run through it but it still keeps its charm and I never really despised one location over the others. Even the torture room has different variations from the other dungeons that it’s attached to. ![]() Running through the biomes for the first time is a fantastic experience with many variations that make each location feel unique from all others. It also has trace elements of a metroidvania, such as finding upgrades and needing to backtrack through levels to advance further. Skippy!
