Get ready to build a kingdom in The King Is Watching as this roguelite strategy game from Hungarian studio Hypnohead is set to launch on Steam in July 2025. The studio also boasted that they’ve gathered over 200,000 wishlists on Steam and their demo has been downloaded 330,000 times and a new gameplay trailer premiered at tinyBuild Connect.
In this strategic game, you manage a kingdom by constructing buildings, planting and harvesting crops, and gathering key resources to strengthen and upgrade. The game offers dynamic gameplay where each run is different, forcing you to adapt your strategies while defending your kingdom from waves of enemies.
However, it features a rather complex system of production chains and strategies; you’ll trade resources with villages to craft rare materials or unlock ancient spells. Additionally, fortifying your castle with stone walls and tactically positioning various types of troops is crucial. Each biome you encounter brings new challenges, making the roguelite concept work perfectly in this game.
