The independent Swedish studio Chronocle began its operations with the release of a mobile sci-fi strategy game titled Dark Star: Idle Galaxy. It allowed the developers from Linköping to gain momentum and release a slightly larger caliber project.

We're talking about an RPG game with clearly defined roguelike and auto battler elements, titled He is Coming. It primarily tests our ability to plan several moves ahead, just like in chess.

Gameplay

In He is Coming we watch the action from a top-down perspective.

Every three days a new enemy

The game transports us to a fantasy land where the Demon King has awakened. During the game, we take on the role of a character, on whom its arch-enemy sends one of his minions every three days. Only when he runs out of all alternatives, he decides to face our hero face to face.
