Taipei, Taiwan, 15 December 2021 -- Announced during Nintendo’s Indie World showcase today, developer maJAJa and publisher Chorus Worldwide have surprise-launched the hit side-scrolling, monster dish-making action game Dungeon Munchies on Nintendo Switch! Watch the delicious launch trailer here: https://youtu.be/g-Rsi5fTiF4
 
In Dungeon Munchies, you find yourself revived in the depths of a vast underground complex, with your only goal to escape the cavernous facility. Your journey will be fraught with danger, though, so you’re going to need some help. That’s where Simmer, your friendly neighborhood undead Necro-Chef comes in. With Simmer’s culinary assistance, you will create elaborate dishes out of the monster, animal, and plant ingredients you’ll hunt and scavenge for. Fill your stomach with up to seven of these meals, and embrace newfound powers as each feast impacts your entire play style.
 
Not sure what to do with the animal and plant parts you can’t eat? Use them to craft the deadliest of weapons, of course! Then pair them with your favorite monstrous meals to create the most powerfully chaotic combat combo. Escape won’t be simple, and you’ll need more than a full stomach to get by. Alongside Simmer, you’ll meet tons of wonderfully eccentric dungeon dwellers, from the diabolical “Lord of the Forest” to the radical fruit revolutionaries. Your freedom depends on them, so help out where you can or get used to calling the dungeon home.
 
Dungeon Munchies and its hilarious cast of characters, intriguing tale, malleable and marvelous gameplay, and endless charm has launched today on Nintendo Switch.
