Inspired by classic RPGs like Undertale and Zelda, this new Steam Deck game is my latest obsession

Tactical Breach Wizards begins with defenestration, combining strategy and whimsy. Scrabdackle features a defenestrative attack as part of its charming, hand-drawn RPG, reminiscent of classic 2D Zelda games. The game includes screen-by-screen exploration, environmental puzzles, and various items to discover. Its aesthetic reflects the dedication of its developer, jakefriend, and incorporates clever mechanics and surprises. The first chapter of Scrabdackle offers a complete experience, blending narrative and exploration with an old-school vibe and modern mechanics, making it particularly enjoyable on the Steam Deck.
