The Fall of Elena Temple is on Xbox and Switch

Having started out with release on the little Playdate, it’s time for the team at GrimTalin to go big, as players on Xbox and Nintendo Switch get the opportunity to fall, collect and undo. They’ll be doing so in The Fall of Elena Temple. 

Super cheap. Super retro. 

Available today on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, as well as Nintendo Switch, The Fall of Elena Temple is a nifty little old-school puzzle platformer in which exploration will be your friend. Having initially landed on Playdate back in 2023, and due to release on PC and PlayStation in the coming months, if you’re up for a game that will test your forward thinking skill, this is most definitely it. 

Running a mere £2.49 price tag (seriously, £2.49 is silly money), The Fall of Elena Temple tasks you with a bit of coin collection. Nothing new there, you may feel, but the twist with this one is that you are able to ‘undo’ your falls. This means that leaping into the unknown should be encouraged, as you grab anything shiny that passes your way. From there, a re-rewind, should see you sorted, ready for your next move. 

It’s a mechanic that we feel we can get onboard with, and when you consider the uber retro vibes coming out of The Fall of Elena Temple, as well as that price tag – did we tell you, £2.49!? – there’s very little reason to not check this one out. 

Key features

  • 20 puzzle rooms to challenge your wits
  • 3 bonus rooms with new mechanics unlocked after you finish the game
  • Grab the undo crystal to enable going back up to five previous positions before falling
  • Collect all coins in a dungeon room to open the passage to the next one
  • Navigate through teleporters, locked doors, spikes, flying arrows, snakes, crumbling platforms and many more perils
  • Crack a smile at Elena’s musings!

Buy now!

You’ll find The Fall of Elena Temple on the Xbox Store, playable on Xbox Series X|S (optimised) and Xbox One. Alternatively, the Nintendo eShop should sort out those on Nintendo Switch. Or you could play on Playdate if you are kitted out. You’ll find it on Steam soon too.

The Fall of Elena Temple Description

The Fall of Elena Temple is an old-school puzzle platformer in which you explore rooms, avoid perils and collect all coins to progress. The catch is you can undo your falls! So don’t be afraid of heights, fall and collect the coins bellow, then undo back up to where you fell from, keeping the coins!

Test your forward thinking and logical skills. Plan your falls carefully, as your undos are limited. If you’re not paying attention, you’ll find yourself unable to restore back to the top, with coins still needing collecting!

Enjoy the retro aesthetics with monochrome pixel art, playing the game on the state of the art handheld GrimBoy (TM) (wink). Reminisce about the good times with lovely pixel art backgrounds to put you right back into your childhood bedroom, the backyard, the park, grandma’s living and many more.

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore.
