A boy. A family of inventors. An enormous steampunk airship packed wall-to-wall with robots that have, predictably, gone full murder-mode. They Will Come is a steampunk adventure/puzzle game from Game Pop Studio, and the premise is exactly as good as it sounds: you play as Benjamin, a kid who has to sneak through his own home while armies of machines try to end him. The aesthetic is pure Punk gold — clockwork automatons, airship corridors, brass-and-steam everything — and the gameplay has you solving environmental puzzles with small helper bots called Embots, plus the occasional nuclear option of unleashing your own heavy robot, Talus, when subtlety is no longer on the menu.

This is, functionally, what the Omega7Red Formulae produces when you feed it “Home Alone” and a Jules Verne novel at the same time. The Doctor approves. It hits PC (Steam) this month, July 2026, so there is no excuse not to wishlist it immediately and report back.
