Never heard of them.

You can get the gist of Abzu by checking out its page on any storefront. Check the screenshots out.

For the King is like a tabletop RPG. You control up to three characters who you name and design yourself, give them classes and then put them in a basic little DnD-style adventure. You move across a hexagonal grid, fighting monsters and encountering random events, until you either run out of lives in the ramping difficulty of the game or until you beat the final boss.

Each game of For the King is a standalone adventure from beginning to end. As you play you get Lore points, which is a currency to buy more character classes, more customisation options and more random events for you to run into on the overworld. It's couch co-op, so you can play with up to three friends, and it also has an online mode.

If you like RPGs with a lot of gameplay depth, replayability and intense personal stakes, For the King is fantastic. It looks ugly as sin and runs at 30fps, but it's just outright one of my favorite RPGs of the last ten years.
