Death Coming

Death Coming for PC and iOS is an original puzzle title developed by independent NEXT Studio.

Plot

In Death Coming, you take the role of a poor lad who lost his life only to become the Death’s agent – the Reaper. From that point on, all he does is reap lives of others in a Final Destination style.

Mechanics

Death Coming put out on PC and iOS features an isometric perspective. The title is divided into chapters with an open-world structure. Each is filled to capacity with neutral characters whose end is already predefined; you just need to play out the scenario. This will not be that easy though, as there is no direct control over the victims – all you can do is manipulate the environment so that they get caught in your traps.

Because each target has their own routine and unique habits, the key to success lies in observing them and careful planning. However, there are angels hovering over the map, who may foil your plans. Also, NPCs notice your actions and react to e.g. somebody’s death, which makes things even more difficult.

Technical aspects

Even though the pixel-art style of Death Coming is combined with colourful graphics, there is a lot of black humour and brutality. Therefore, the title is meant only for adults.
