Wii U eShop
- Pandora’s Tower (Nintendo, €14.99 / £13.49 until 23rd April, then €19.99 / £17.99) – originally a Wii game that came in 2012, this dark action/RPG adventure sees you race against the clock to clear increasingly difficult tower labyrinths in order to save Elena from transforming into a monster.
- Elliot Quest (PlayEveryWare, €12.99 / £9.49) – this retro-styled adventure comes courtesy of Kickstarter backing. This open world game is inspired by Zelda II and features an open world including five dungeons, 16 bosses and multiple endings. We were very impressed with this fun and challenging adventure in our Elliot Quest review.
