Take on the evil queen in this 2D adventure.
With a macabre tone and flightless bird as its hero, Well Dweller certainly stood out during this morning's Nintendo Indie World showcase. The game, developed by Kyle Thompson and Top Hat Studios, is primed for a 2026 launch on Nintendo Switch and shows a lot of promise. Take a look at the gameplay in this trailer:
Here are some screenshots:
What is Well Dweller all about? Let's hear what Top Hat has to say about the game:
Deep within the forest, at the bottom of a well, lives the only creature brave enough to oppose the queen. Play as Glimmer, a tiny bird armed with a matchstick who must burn the wicked queen to save his family. Journey into a whimsical but morbid fairy tale landscape of charming characters and dangerous foes. Collect trinkets to upgrade your abilities and battle terrifying beasts with the aid of your matchstick as you forge a path to reunite your siblings. Solve puzzles, discover secrets and unravel the mysteries that lie in this rotted kingdom.
There's no firm release date just yet for Well Dweller, but once we know it, we'll be sure to share it with all of you.
