After recently having a blast with Shredder's Revenge, I've been in a very Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle-y mood, so when Jody spotted a new TMNT roguelike on the way to Steam later this year, my interest was piqued. Seeing it was already out on Switch, I gave Splintered Fate a go during a PC-less bank holiday weekend away—and discovered it's surprisingly bodacious.
There are some red flags here, admittedly. For one, the Switch release is actually a port of a mobile game originally on Apple Arcade, and mobile is where all the developer's previous work is from what I can see. It's also a licensed game, and a pretty obvious clone of an existing game—it's basically Hades but with mutants and co-op. But I promise, there's more here than meets the eye.
