Shiren the Wanderer 2: Oni Invasion! Shiren Castle! English translation
不思議のダンジョン 風来のシレン2 鬼襲来!シレン城! · Fushigi no Dungeon: Fuurai no Shiren 2 - Oni Shuurai! Shiren Jou!
ozidual's complete English translation of the Nintendo 64 Shiren the Wanderer 2, the Japan-only roguelike in which Shiren helps build a castle against an oni invasion.
What's translated
This patch by ozidual is listed as fully playable and turns the game's text into English: dialogue with the villagers and companions, item names and descriptions, menus and the many messages that appear while you explore. In a roguelike where unidentified items and status effects decide whether a run survives, being able to read everything makes a big difference. Version 1.02 was released in February 2022.
The game
Each trip into a dungeon is randomly generated and failure sends you back with nothing, while the materials you bring home help raise Shiren's castle step by step.
Playing it
Apply the patch to your own copy of the Japanese Nintendo 64 game, following the instructions on the patch's page.
