Join Nymn and Echo once again in Tanglewood for Nintendo Switch! This definitive release features many enhancements such as widescreen support, high quality audio, new levels, achievements, and an all-new storybook mode which tells the tale of Tanglewood and how it came to be.

OUT NOW ON NINTENDO SWITCH!

Nymn is a young Djunn, who has been separated from his pack. Lost, nervous and alone, he needs to find his way through the sprawling forest of Tanglewood—a place of darkness, night terrors and strange, hungry beasts.
Help Nymn make it through to morning by using special abilities, lateral thinking and quick reactions to avoid, defeat and overcome the challenges and monsters that await! Fast-paced 2D platforming meets interesting puzzles, tricks, and surprises.

Tanglewood is a true 16-bit game, originally designed and programmed on 90’s hardware, and is a love letter to the golden age of pixel art gaming. The game spans eight story chapters, hand-crafted pixel art with fluid animation, an original soundtrack by Freezedream, and many secrets, achievements, and collectibles.
