Dungeon Hearts DX heading to Wii U with exclusive art, characters and music
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
Cube Roots’ indie puzzle game Dungeon Hearts originally came out a couple of years ago. It’s now in the works for Wii U with a few new elements.
First, here’s a brief overview of the actual game:
“Dungeon Hearts fuses the strategy and pattern matching of puzzle games with the kinetic pace of action games. Align magical runes as they flow along the Fatestream to attack, defend, and conjure magic in frenetic battles against a bestiary of fantastic creatures out to use those same runes against you. Chain together multiple attacks and unleash powerful combos or call upon each hero’s special attacks to devastate your enemies to survive the twists and turns of Dungeon Heart’s evolving gameplay. Strike down all that stand in your way and level up your brave warriors as each foe grows more powerful than the last, culminating in the final battle with The Dark One himself!”
On Wii U, the title will be known as “Dungeon Hearts DX”. The team will be including new art, characters, and music, all of which are exclusive to this new release. Fans can also expect interface changes, balance to the combat, and a hub area to listen to music and manage your party. Feedback and criticism from the original Dungeon Hearts is also being considered.
Check out one of the earlier trailers for Dungeon Hearts below. The new “DX” version hits the eShop this winter.

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 4 Comments
Human Resource Machine, the newest game from Little Inferno developer Tomorrow Corporation, is launching on the Wii U eShop next month. The studio announced in a website post that it’s slated for October 15.
Human Resource Machine was originally revealed in June, though Wii U was not a confirmed platform at the time. An official description of the title reads:
Human Resource Machine is a puzzle game. In each level, your boss gives you a job. Automate it by programming your little office worker! If you succeed, you’ll be promoted up to the next level for another year of work in the vast office building. Congratulations!
Don’t worry if you’ve never programmed before – programming is just puzzle solving. If you strip away all the 1’s and 0’s and scary squiggly brackets, programming is actually simple, logical, beautiful, and something that anyone can understand and have fun with!
You can find Human Resource Machine’s original trailer below.
