Twisted Tower Launches on Steam: A Corrupted 1950s Resort Roguelite
The long-in-development Twisted Tower has arrived on Steam, offering a vertical roguelite set inside a decaying mid-century resort overrun by sinister fairy-tale mascots.
Twisted Tower, developed under the handle Dr. Prepper, is now available on PC via Steam following its August 18, 2026 release.
The game is set in an abandoned 1950s resort and frames its premise as a rescue mission: a protagonist climbing an ever-shifting tower to save someone they love. The setting spans several distinct locations — a hotel, a waterpark, a clown casino, and others — each rendered in what the announcement describes as "hauntingly beautiful" style.
What's in the game
- Vertical traversal using jumps, dashes, and grappling, augmented by what are described as "bizarre toys"
- Combat against corrupted fairy-tale mascots using an arsenal of unconventional weapons
- Narrative elements tied to uncovering the protagonist's past
- A world that "changes with every playthrough," suggesting procedural or branching structure
- Weapon upgrade systems built into progression
A launch discount of 10% is currently available, according to the announcement.
For players drawn to carnival-gothic aesthetics and roguelite structure, Twisted Tower positions itself as a mechanically layered climb — though how those systems hold up in practice remains for reviews to establish.
