Motion sickness warning ahead.Dandara’s disorienting world is about to get dizzier. Developers Long Hat House this week announced a new Trials of Fear Edition.

Trials of Fear adds 3 new regions to Dandara’s topsy-turvy world. Additionally, Dandara is getting a new boss (that nightmare-tree in the header), a new ability, a host of quality of life updates and a secret new ending. Granted, I didn’t see the first ending - that big spinning heart boss is a right stubborn git.
Mind, I was playing it on a phone. That’s a valid excuse. Do not “@” me.
It’s a lovely-looking set of additions to a quietly brilliant little platformer. John (RPS in peace) was well impressed in hisDandara review, with simple, restrained mechanics that are “immensely satisfying to master”, even if the game cranks the difficulty up to 100 far too quickly.
An updated soundtrack also adds 16 new tracks to Dandara’s moody soundscape. You can check out two of ‘em, and more details on the update, over on theTrials of Fear announcement page.
