You can find the rundown (via Steam) below:

Nigate Tile is a rogue-like dungeon crawler with unique low-poly and 2D anime art. Fight your way out of a mysterious enchanted castle, searching for materials and loot to buy and craft new equipment, leveling up your character to get new combat skills and befriending cute monster girls capable of boosting you with astonishing magical powers!

A DEEP STORY FOR YOU TO PIECE TOGETHER!
In Nigate Tale you play as Roy, a crafty young engineer and adventurer. One day, you were flying in your airplane when a strange cloud sucked you into a strange, unknown world. You crashed in the sewers of a castle, inhabited by strange magical creatures. You have to explore every corner of this ever-changing castle to find all the missing parts… and piece together the secret story of this place, unveiling the thousands-years-old mystery that trapped it out of time and space.

NERVE-WRACKING ROGUE-LIKE GAMEPLAY
Your mission won’t be easy: you’ll have to fight your way out of the labyrinthic corners of this castle, full of monsters, traps and all kinds of hazards. Every time you die, you will reappear in the same place, as in stuck in a neverending time loop… but the castle will have changed its layout, forcing you to begin your path anew!

FAST-PACED AND DEEP COMBAT SYSTEM
Enjoy the thrill of a fast-paced and deep combat system that will keep you on the edge of your seat! Nigate Tale gives you total freedom to choose your own playstyle, with dozens of weapons of all kinds (melee and ranged, slow but strong and weak but fast…), different types of magic, and several skills trees for you to level up, creating in every playthrough a unique character to fight with.

LEARN NEW SKILLS AND MAGIC!
You’ll need to hone your skills and level up to learn new fighting techniques if you are to get out of this castle… But luckily you won’t be alone in this fight: this castle is also inhabited by friendly monster ladies, capable of granting you magical powers and even fight by your side… if you manage to befriend them and bring them the right presents!

GATHER AND LOOT TO BUY AND CRAFT NEW GEAR
As you beat enemies in your incursions to the heart of the castle, you will loot gold you can use to buy new gear. But you can also gather materials to craft your own special equipment – and of course, the special items needed to gain the favor of the monster girls!

ASTOUNDING LOW-POLY AND 2D ANIME ART
Hermit Game, the studio behind Nigate Tale, was founded by former artists of the anime industry. You’ll be the protagonist of your own vibrant and colorful anime show!
