"Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake: A Fresh Take on Classic Metroidvania"

by Carter May 18,2025

If you're a long-time mobile gamer, you might remember a delightful retro-styled Metroidvania called Tiny Dangerous Dungeons, which was released about a decade ago. Well, get ready for a surprise: Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake is set to hit iOS and Android on March 7th. If you're eager to dive back into this gem, pre-registration is now open.

Originally launched in 2015, Tiny Dangerous Dungeons earned a solid 4-star review from Harry Slater, who appreciated its fresh take while delivering those cherished Game Boy vibes. However, the remake brings a refreshed look, moving away from the sepia tones of the original to a more vibrant and colorful aesthetic. While it retains its old-school charm, it's less reminiscent of the Game Boy, and I must say, I find the new colors more engaging and appealing.

The visual update is just the beginning. Developer Jussi Simpanen has also introduced a brand-new soundtrack and enhanced the game's physics, addressing some minor issues from the original. Moreover, the remake promises a wealth of new content: the titular dungeon is now twice as large and features five additional bosses. While there are new secrets to discover, the developer is keeping those under wraps for now.

Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake will be available as a premium experience on the App Store and Google Play for $3.99 or its local equivalent. You can secure your copy by pre-ordering on your preferred platform using the buttons below.
