About Chronocide

The undead are coming — and standing still isn’t an option.In Chronocide, you fight back against massive undead hordes in third-person combat, combining fast-paced action with trap-based defense. Build deadly setups, trigger physics-driven chaos, and survive wave after wave using both skill and teamwork.Every run is about experimentation:
Set traps, lure enemies, knock them into hazards, and watch your plans either succeed brilliantly… or collapse in hilarious disaster.Whether you’re holding the line alone or coordinating with friends, survival depends on smart positioning, timing, and creative use of your tools.

Freeze enemies - Cut them up - Launch them into spikes - Burn entire hordes up

Coordinate defenses - Then improvise when everything falls apart.
The 4 available heroes play very differently and complement eachother;Waldis the wizard - elemental magic and projectile weaponsRolanda the paladin - support, buffs, and frontline presenceMike the soldier - precise gunplay and ranged pressureAnthia the necromancer - spells and summoned minions

Complete levels to earn stars and upgrade your characters and gear. Unlock new items, improve your abilities, and refine your strategies as the challenge ramps up.Chronocide rewards smart planning and mastery — but it also encourages trying wild ideas just to see what happens.

Play solo or co-op (up to 4 players)!
Mix and match roles in co-op to create powerful team synergies.This game is challenging - If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.
Or... switch to casual difficulty - Less hardship but also less star rewards. Missing stars on a level? Replay it to increase your rewards.Original soundtrack by Malin Eriksson.

Chronocide is actively evolving throughout Early Access with new content, balance changes, and improvements planned over time.The game already offers full co-op play, core progression, and a complete first act.
More content, balance changes, and improvements will be added over time as development continues.If you enjoy challenging co-op games, physics-driven combat, and experimenting with deadly trap setups, Chronocide is built for you.NOTE: Only 1 act is available so far in the early access.
The base game will contain the first 3 acts which is the main story arc.
As you progress through the acts, more traps, weapons and other items will be available.
Play through the campaign to unlock more game modes.

This game has been a lot of fun so far. The characters all feel unique, and Anthia is easily my favorite. There's also a surprising amount of upgrades and progression, and the combat feels satisfying. The game can be pretty challenging solo though, and I definitely struggled at times. I love the graphics, the old-school look has a lot of charm, and the lore has been interesting enough to keep me curious about the world. Looking forward to seeing how the game develops during Early Access!

My buddy and I have thoroughly enjoyed playing this game, it is a blast lmao. We definitely found the combo to max out and have committed to maxing everything out, certainly looking forward to Act 2! Game is nostalgic as hell.

Really fun indie co-op game with satisfying trap setups and chaotic fights. Every character feels different, and experimenting with builds/traps is what keeps me coming back. Definitely challenging, but pulling off a perfect defense with friends feels great.

What I enjoy most about this game is how every run feels like a chance to improve. The action keeps you engaged, and there is always that feeling that the next attempt might be your best one yet.

Make your way through increasingly tougher enemies as one of four characters with each unique abilities, Chronocide offers 1-4 player co-op but today we'll just be running solo. Let me preface this by saying I wish Steam had a "Informational" review option as they do for their curators. I don't think this game is bad, but I also can't recommend it to solo-only players. Please read my review before judging the game! [b] First thoughts [/b] Right off the bat we're greeted with an arcade-style menu with Runescape-esque player models and graphics to beat. The character selection menu offers promise of personalised loadouts. The animations are nowhere near godly, but they have a charm to them. So does the voice-acting which is clunky enough to convince me it's generated but not that I'm sure of it. As there's no disclaimer, I'm going to assume it's humans who've never spoken to humans before. Also Mike, buddy, don't point guns at yourself when introducing your character, this is how you get killed. [b] Combat/game tutorial [/b] I'm met with font a little too small for my bad eyes to read, the italicised font is a challenge to comprehend and colour on colour confliction. I would real…
