After 33 years, an underrated NES Metroidvania gets a direct sequel from the same developer, now with a roguelike spin

Ufouria: The Saga 2.

Over three decades after it was first released, cult classic NES Metroidvania
Ufouria: The Saga finally has a direct sequel, and it's doing things a little
differently.

Launched all the way back in 1991, Ufouria: The Saga sees you as penguin-like
protagonist Hebe (or if you played the European version, a snowman called Bop-
Louie) explore an interconnected world in search of your friends. These pals
aren't just good for staving off loneliness; they also grant Hebe access to
additional skills that, in typical Metroidvania fashion, help you retrieve items and
power-ops that were previously out of reach.
