This is you
You're searching for your kidnapped sister. But to find her, you'll have to fight mask-wearing severed heads, ill-tempered ladybugs that spin and toss you (AKA “Viper Beetles”) catapult-riding felines that lob items at you, plus more crazy monsters with crazier powers in this hardcore, permadeath adventure.
Voyage to Farland is a cute but hardcore graphical roguelike inspired by the Japanese Mystery Dungeon games. Cute like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, hardcore like Shiren the Wanderer.
Here's what's in store for you so far:
• 5 unlockable themed dungeons
• 4 NPCs you can recruit to help you fight
• rescue codes to save and be saved by other players

http://www.peculiar-games.com/The game's had a long development cycle, starting out as Nintendo DS homebrew, moving to Android and landing on desktops this past summer. I personally feel that the harder Mystery Dungeon games deserve a wider audience in the west even though few of them have been localized and sold here with the exception of the Pokemon MD games. Hopefully Voyage to Farland will get western gamers interested in this "console roguelike" sub-genre.
