The classic platformer genre may have seen a dip in popularity, but it continues to thrive on mobile devices, offering endless jumping, dodging, and shooting fun. A prime example of this is the revival of the beloved game with the release of Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake, now available on iOS and Android. This update breathes new life into the Metroidvania-style platformer, bringing it back with a bang.

Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake cleverly pays homage to its retro roots while introducing modern enhancements. The game has transitioned from the iconic monochrome Game Boy black and green palette to vibrant 16-bit graphics, reminiscent of classic console rereleases. This visual upgrade not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also maintains the nostalgic feel that fans adore. Beyond the graphics, the remake has been thoroughly reworked and revamped, smoothing out many of the original's rough edges for a more polished experience.

However, our reviewer Jack Brassel pointed out a significant drawback: the absence of controller support. For a game in the platforming genre, this can be a major hurdle for many players, as evidenced by experiences with other titles like Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. Fortunately, Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake compensates with a more forgiving difficulty level, making it accessible to a broader audience.

Dungeon crawlingIf you're in the mood for pure platforming action with a dash of Metroidvania flair, Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake is the perfect choice. The upgraded graphics allow you to immerse yourself in beautifully rendered pixel art without taxing your device's performance.

The lack of controller support remains a notable issue, but there's hope that this might be rectified in future updates.
