We had a lot of praise for the adorable-but-difficult Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos back when we reviewed it en 2021. It wears its Zelda: Un vínculo al pasado love proudly on its sleeve, from the way the game starts to the visuals, even the map! But it’s A Link to the Past with a twist because it throws in some roguelike elements that are designed to compel and challenge.

Now this charming little roguelite is getting a major update on 31st March. Neatly titled ‘Druids & Dungeons’, you can guess at least two things coming to the game when the update drops next week.

For now, aquí están las notas del parche, straight from publisher Team17’s site:

A NEW CLASS

You’ve heard of pet the dog… but what if you’re the one who wants to be petted?

– The Druid class allows you to transform into 6 different forms!
– Make like a fish in water! Transform into an aquatic fish-like form to swim through bodies of water.
– Wade through deep mud as a Croaker, a large toad-like creature.
– Turn into a dog to charm NPC’s and de-aggro enemies! You’ll also be able locate and dig up hidden objects.
– Use the form of a squirrel to dodge attacks and travel across the overworld or dungeons quickly.
– Transform into a lemur to leap into the air, and turn into stone as you slam down and stun enemies!
– Transform into a snake to both attack and de-buff enemies.
