For someone like me that has been playing video games for a long time, there is a sort of comfort food feeling to old school grid-based dungeon crawling RPGs like Haunted Dungeons: Hyakki Castle. It ticks all of the expected boxes, which would be enough for me to at least enjoy the game on those merits alone, but Hyakki Castle has a couple of other interesting twists to its gameplay formula that makes it a refreshing addition to a somewhat formulaic genre.

Hyakki Castle - PC Review
Hyakki Castle is an interesting title, mostly traditional as a dungeon crawler, but with unique visuals and one really quirky gameplay mechanic that defies genre norms. The end result is strange game that has some weaknesses, but plays up its strengths enough to be worth the time of dungeon crawling RPG fans.
