❤ Commanding an Undead Army

As a powerful necromancer, players can raise and command a diverse horde of up to 20 different undead minions, including skeletons, zombies, banshees, and more. A key feature is the ability to pre-select up to 5 unit types to summon, allowing for strategic army customization. Players can then upgrade and enhance these undead forces using "soul jars" collected from cleared areas, steadily growing their necromantic power. Reviewers praise this necromancer-focused gameplay, with one stating they were able to amass "an army of over 100 units" to overwhelm their foes. Players enjoy the flexibility to experiment, with one creating a "cloud of undead chickens" as a unique and viable army composition.

❤ Fast-paced Combat and Progression

In battle, players directly control their necromancer, wielding a variety of weapons and magical spells to support their undead armies in satisfying hack-and-slash combat. Reviewers describe the combat as engaging, with "a wide array of enemies to face off against." As players progress, they unlock new undead units, abilities, and upgrades, creating a constant sense of improvement. This progression is intertwined with the game's "Necropolis" system, where players invest the souls they collect to upgrade their hub city and further strengthen their forces. Reviewers highlight how this loop of venturing out, defeating enemies, and reinvesting the spoils keeps the gameplay fresh and rewarding.

❤ Flexible Playstyles

The game allows for flexibility in playstyles, enabling players to adopt different approaches. Reviewers note the ability to play as a backseat commander, directly supporting their minions, or take a more hands-on role by joining the fray themselves. Additionally, the talent and rune systems provide opportunities to customize the necromancer's abilities, catering to various preferences. One player shared their unique "cloud of undead chickens" army composition, demonstrating the breadth of viable build options. Reviewers appreciate this depth, with one stating they are "such a big fan of the 'control minions and let them do the work' type of games."
