ShiShi: Timeless Prelude is an ultra-cosy roguelike dungeon crawler coming to mobile

  • ShiShi: Timeless Prelude, is the latest game to make the jump from consoles to mobile
  • An ultra-cozy, stylised dungeon crawler, you’ll guide mage Elia to complete her training as an oracle
  • Built with accessibility and replayability at its heart

As a seasoned gamer with a soft spot for quirky, accessible titles, I can’t help but feel a surge of excitement at the impending mobile release of ShiShi: Timeless Prelude! With its adorable aesthetic and engaging gameplay, it seems destined to become a staple in my ever-growing collection.


Once more, it’s approaching the hour where we reflect on games transitioning to mobile platforms. Today, I’m thrilled to share exciting news: Shishi: Timeless Prelude, a game previously exclusive to consoles, is scheduled to debut on mobile devices by the end of 2024!

In the game Shishi, you assume the role of Elia, a mage on a journey to transform into an Oracle. But be warned, this isn’t just about cramming for a written test – it requires real effort. To achieve this, you must guide Elia through the challenging labyrinthine sanctuary, battling adversaries and completing tasks that will help her finish her training.

When ShiShi describes itself as extremely cozy, it truly means it. In this case, your adorable anime characters aren’t even humanized, but rather they’re bowling balls. It wouldn’t get any cozier unless there were a fishing mini-game and farming aspects included. Nevertheless, if you’re looking for an old-school RPG that will keep you engaged, ShiShi might just be the game for you.


Bowling for soup

It’s noteworthy that almost everything in ShiShi is carefully planned out. This isn’t just a casual endeavor; designer Frédéric McNamara, who also battles Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, has invested significant effort into making games more accessible. ShiShi aims to be both enjoyable and inclusive, catering to seasoned players, families, and even young children alike.
