Steam briefly gets a Crap Dungeon, the devs of which are hoping it’s not actually crap

Summary
Gamers have been amused by the Japanese translation of The Crazy Hyper-Dungeon Chronicles, which has been renamed ‘Crap Dungeon’ on the Steam site in Japan.
Although it was originally believed to be an error, it has since been revealed that the rename may well have been intentional, due to the difficulty of translating slang and colloquialisms.
The game itself is a medieval fantasy rogue-like dungeon crawler, which generates random labyrinths for players to navigate each time they play.
Gamers can test out the game for themselves with the demo, which has just been released on Steam, ahead of the full game release on 23 October.
The developers, Italian company Fix-a-Bug, have seen the funny side, and are now working to rectify the name on the Japanese site.
