We’re a little bit excited today. You see, not only is Curse of Resthaven out now on Switch 1 and 2, which is good news in and of itself, but we’re extra happy because we got a starring mention in the new release trailer for Nintendo’s platform.

This is an EXCITING development because, to my knowledge, it’s the first time Rogueliker has featured in a promo trailer like this one. It’s another little sign that we’re on the right track, I think! Anyway, let’s get back to the matter at hand…

Curse of Resthaven is a new narrative roguelite that recently launched on PC, PS5, and Xbox.

It’s set on an island called Resthaven, which is in the grip of a terrible curse, and you, as the new Governor, have arrived just in time to solve the mystery.

With the help of a Groundhog Day-esque time loop, you must uncover local secrets and use your knowledge to advance the story, with trading, complex dialogue trees, and much more to explore.

There’s not much more to say at this stage, other than strongly suggesting that you check out the Switch and Switch 2 launch trailer for Curse of Resthaven below. After that, if you’re tempted to read the full review, Kirsty’s excellent write-up can be found via this link.

Still with me? Of course you are! If you want to keep reading about great hand-picked roguelikes, this website is absolutely chock-full of them. Head over to the Guides Page for a concentrated hit of roguish games, organised via sub-genre and platform.

What’s more, there are always going to be new lists for emerging trends as well as fresh titles to highlight. This is because my backlog is embarrassingly long, and so I’m always trying to balance the new games that arrive in my inbox with playing the stuff I already have.
