Vaporum: Lockdown launches on Nintendo Switch

Vaporum: Lockdown

Vaporum: Lockdown is now available on Nintendo Switch following a successful launch on PC, Mac, and Linux last year.

Vaporum: Lockdown is a grid-based dungeon crawler in an original steampunk setting. The game draws its inspiration from classics such as Dungeon Master and Eye of the Beholder as well as the new Legend of Grimrock series.

A prequel, Lockdown expands on the previous tale in an all-new adventure. You’ll follow Ellie Teller, a young scientist working on teleportation research in a grand secret project — Arx Vaporum — hidden in the middle of a vast ocean.

According to indie developer Fatbot Games, you’ll “experience the last moments of her normal day job before things go very wrong, forcing her to quickly adapt to omnipresent danger and to confront her own past.”

The game is localized in eight different languages: English, German, Spanish, French, Russian, Polish, Japanese, and Chinese. It retails for $21.99 on the Nintendo eShop. Meanwhile, the PC version is available for $17.99 via the Humble Store.
