  • News Embrace A Different Kind Of Virtual Console On Switch With The Adventures of Elena Temple

    Bask in the nostalgia

    For those old enough to the classic consoles of time gone by, when the likes of HD visuals and update patches weren't even a thing, this game might just be for you. The Adventures of Elena Temple is a monochromatic puzzle platformer made to look as if it was created in the '80s. The twist here is that you...

About The Game

Ever miss being a child, playing games at your grandma's or in your old bedroom? Then look no further! The Adventures of Elena Temple is the classic you never knew existed. And the best part is that you can play it on virtual old machines that kind of sort of maybe existed. It's not like you can for sure anyway, right?

The game is a monochromatic puzzle platformer made to look as if it were created in the 80s. Overcome obstacles, figure out how to collect all the coins, find all the gems and your childhood while doing it! Progress through the game's dungeon through non-linear exploration and keep an open eye for secrets to find.

  • A dungeon of 50+ rooms to overcome, each its own mini-level
  • Open exploration, choose which way to go, but don't worry, a helpful map is just one button press away
  • Challenging, old-school platforming
  • Collect as many coins as you want, but we both know you want them all
  • Coins will make you rich, but there's no escaping the dungeon without all the gems
  • Secret scrolls to find for the more observant player
  • Best of all, play the game on a selection of seven virtual old machines, from the Pomo D'or 4, to Maple and Some Toy and all the way to the NS-Bos PC

The Adventures of Elena Temple is just one game you can play on seven simulated machines. Aside from the different look, the game plays the same on all machines and has the exact same content! The purpose of these old machines is to remind you of the old days, so feel free to pick whichever you like best without any fear of missing out on game content.
