    If you have enjoyed blowing hours and hours playing any Diablo or Torchlight game (or PoE), this is probably the best game you've never heard of.

It borrows heavily from those games (procedurally generated loot and levels, enchanter type NPC's, 4 class choices with unique skill trees, infinite progression systems, 6 different rarity levels for loot, etc), and it includes multiple deep and engaging systems that are entirely its own.

    I've literally logged over ten thousand hours on those games, and Chronicon is absolutely on par with them in terms of replayability, depth, and fun. And I actually put off buying the game because I didn't like what they were doing with the graphics. Luckily, I bit the $10 bullet and bought it anyway.

    So far, I've spent a little over 1,000 hours in this Early Access game - in less than 6 months - and every update increases my enjoyment and excitement for the game's future. There have been 2 major and 4 or 5 minor updates in this time, and the developer is on track for a full release sometime in the latter half of 2018.

    Playing through the current story (4 out of 5 acts) on one class will yield between 12 and 20 hours of gameplay if you spend minimal time exploring the world (and tweaking your build..). If you're even moderately interested in min-maxxing, you'll easily spend 50+ hours exploring the game's systems. At this time, you'll likely be thoroughly addicted. Enjoy it!    … Expand

    Very good little game, deep characterization, many builds can be made, a lot and a lot of interesting loots, affixes on loots are random, there are no 2 identical uniques. combat is satisfying with explosions and effects. bring me much satisfaction than other more expensive titles like Wolcen or Warhammer Chaosbane, ...

    What an excellent game. It's not as polished as Diablo, but it's every bit as fun. Great gameplay, excellent variety of loot, endless build possibilities, neat skills tree. I had this in my inventory before sitting down and giving it a chance. Just fantastic, addictive, and the price is right. If you liked Diablo, Grim Dawn etc. you won't be disappointed.

    Extremely impressive for a solo developer! If you like relatively simple arpgs for their action and accessible skill trees, and aren't expecting complexity on the level of path of exile, give it a try. Sometimes simplicity can be nice, when you want a more casual arpg to just turn your brain off, relax, and have fun. There are still plenty of builds to discover.
