Well Dweller Hands-On: A Bird, a Matchstick, and a Dark Fairy Tale at TGS2026
A hands-on demo of the dark fairy tale Metroidvania Well Dweller ran at Tokyo Game Show 2026. The protagonist, Glimmer, is the eldest son of the last bird family living at the bottom of a well after a queen began hunting birds. He explores with a matchstick that doubles his attack when lit and doubles damage taken when the fire is out. A boss called the Administrator wields broken scissors.
