Severed is a first-person dungeon crawler developed by Drinkbox Studios, released in 2016 for PlayStation Vita, Nintendo 3DS, Wii U, iOS, and Nintendo Switch. Players navigate maze-like environments and engage enemies through touch-based combat, swiping across the screen to attack. A central mechanic involves severing body parts from defeated enemies, with the harvested pieces feeding into a loot and crafting system used to create and upgrade armor. The game blends RPG progression with hack-and-slash action, building character advancement around resource collection tied directly to combat performance. Drinkbox Studios, known for stylized visuals and inventive mechanics, applies a distinctive art style to the dungeon crawler format, making touch controls a core part of both the combat rhythm and the broader loop of exploration and gear improvement.
