About Apocalypse Approaches

A seer warns that the world is nearing its end, sending you beyond a safe haven into a ruined landscape of demons to stop the apocalypse. The clock constantly drains, damage removes additional time, and running out ends the attempt. Defeating enemies restores time and recharges spells, making combat a way to extend the run as well as a danger.

Subdials hold specialized time for buffs. Cogs add abilities and improve subdials, but equipping too many speeds up the clock; searching for more upgrades also competes with reaching the exit.
