  • Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon is out now for iOS and Android
  • The former Apple Arcade exclusive mixes RPG elements and dungeon crawling
  • Take on hordes of monsters, switch characters on the fly or team up with couch co-op

For a second time, another game from Apple Arcade is making its way onto broader iOS and Android platforms, as Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon launches today. This stylish modern-retro interpretation of the dungeon crawler genre promises plenty of thrills for enthusiasts of this genre, while also offering a chance for those already acquainted with it to dive back in.

Initially, it’s clear why Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon left a lasting impact. Unlike its predecessors, which featured 3D graphics, this installment opted for a vintage look while still delivering rapid-fire action to keep things engaging.

In Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon, you assume the part of explorers in the broken kingdom of Arcadia. Your mission is to change the path of history by delving into the named dungeon and retrieving an artifact known as the Paradigm Hourglass, which holds the power to manipulate the past.

Gotta’ get back, back to the past

Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon seems to offer a pretty full grab-bag of features for fans of RPGs and dungeon crawlers. You’ve got fast-paced real-time action where you can switch between characters on the fly (perfect for those who find turn-based a bit too tedious), alongside an immense dungeon with plenty of mechanics, such as a rising risk factor to deal with.

For fans who are particular about each genre, it might not meet every expectation. However, if you’re curious about blending these genres together, I strongly recommend giving Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon a try and forming your own opinion about it.
