Sure thing, here we go:

Roguelike? Yeah, that word’s kinda lost its edge, hasn’t it? Once upon a time, it was all about games that looked like Rogue. Now, you’ve got everything from Hades to Balatro shoved in there. They’re rad, don’t get me wrong, but man, sometimes I just wanna dive back into that gritty, old-school dungeon vibe. Enter “He is Coming” by Hooded Horse, who also brought us Manor Lords. If you’ve got PC Game Pass, well, stop reading — go play!
So, here’s the scoop: you’re this hero roaming a world that wants to eat you alive, hunting down the demon king. Every move on the map? Time ticks on. Three days go by and, bam, new boss on your tail. Oh, and the bosses? Thirty of those nightmares, each with their own trickery. Take the Razorclaw Grizzly: dude doesn’t care about your shiny armor. Maybe you bulk up on health? But, a speed attack could mean less damage. Or maybe it won’t. Sometimes the plan’s perfect until reality slaps you in the face. Typical roguelike chaos.
Now, combat — it’s like those auto battlers where everything’s out of your hands, right? You set up your attacks and then, fingers crossed. You wander the map dodging sprite enemies, but in battles, you’re just along for the ride. Feeling out of control much? Oh, and there’s this Kingmaker mode. Other players’ builds? Yeah, they’re all out there with enemies. Adds a fun twist to the madness.
Shopping time! Snatch up “He is Coming” on Steam — there’s a juicy launch discount of $9.74 till July 31. PC Game Pass users, get on it!
