The Legend of Dark Witch Renovation

The Legend of Dark Witch: Renovation (known as simply The Legend of Dark Witch on the Nintendo Switch) is a remake of the inaugural game of the Dark Witch series. It was released to coincide with the franchise's 5th anniversary, replacing Brave Dungeon 2 which was delayed indefinitely.

Unlike the PlayStation Vita and Steam versions of the game, which avoid making significant changes to the 3DS original beyond accommodating for the lack of a second screen, Renovation adds several features.

According to NAN-A, the game's director, the game was created in roughly five months. The game was made available in Japan almost immediately after it was announced, with a worldwide release occurring roughly 24 hours later due to timezone differences.

Gameplay Changes
Renovation's default gameplay mode features several tweaks:
 * The game utilizes the Capacity Meter from The Legend of Dark Witch 2, as opposed to the original game in which normal shots are free and Technical Skills uses charge from the Enhancement Slot gauge.
 * Enemies now drop health on Easy and Normal difficulty.
 * Comet is said to increase in effectiveness.
 * On Easy difficulty, all slots are retained after dying, akin to the Very x2 Easy difficulty in The Legend of Dark Witch 2 and all difficulty levels in The Legend of Dark Witch 3. On Normal difficulty, all Speed and Wing/Dash slots are retained. On Lunatic, none are retained.
 * Upon starting a new game, the player is given the option of "Boss Arrangement", which causes some of the boss's attacks to behave differently.
 * Avoid Runner from Brave Dungeon was added as a minigame.
 * "Breakers", a new Arkanoid-type game, was added as a minigame.
 * The Nintendo Switch version gives players Syega for having a Brave Dungeon + Dark Witch's Story: COMBAT save.
 * A paid DLC stage was added to the game after release. It features enemies pulled from the game's seven standard levels, as well as the evaporating blocks from Cholesy's stage in Dark Witch 3. Day is the stage's boss, with the stage appearing to take place shortly after the incident that caused her to go into exile.

Change Style
The Change Style menu, unlocked by paying 500 Syega at the post-game Syega Shop, allows the player to change several game traits.
 * Library BGM: Allows the player to change the music in Klinsy's stage, Heaven's Garden. "Retro" will play the 8-bit Drancia Saga remix, while "Jazz" will play Neville's stage theme from The Legend of Dark Witch 3.
 * Papelne Voice: Papelne received new voice work in this game. This option allows players to switch to her original voice actress.
 * Sola Voice: Sola received new voice work in this game. This option allows players to switch to her original voice actress.
 * Technical Skills: Currently unknown.
 * Boss Battle BGM: Changes the pre-battle and boss battle music to that of Dark Witch 2 or Dark Witch 3.
 * Overall Style: Setting this to "Old" will change the game into a near-direct port of the original 2014 release, including reinstating the original sprite work, changing the character art to the original work by HI-GO! and Miyata, undoing all of the aforementioned gameplay changes, and restoring the original menus where applicable.

Other Features

 * The Steam version features an English art book for $9.99 USD.
 * The game features all new character art, designed by artist Panipani. Likewise, the game features updated spritework, alongside updated menus and UI.
 * The 16-Bit look was removed and there are new portraits.
 * The game's Sound Test now covers the entirety of the game's audio, including music, sound effects and voices.
 * The three Majin Shoujo Anime releases and nine of the Majin Shoujo Manga releases can be viewed in-game.
 * In addition to English, Japanese, and Traditional Chinese, the game is playable in French, Italian, German, Spanish, and Simplified Chinese. To accomplish this, INSIDE SYSTEM allowed fans of the respective languages to edit the game's script. As a result, the English script also features slight fixes, including renaming "Enforcement Slot" to "Enhancement Slot" and "Pura Syega" to "Pure Syega."
