Necro Story is a creature-collection RPG where you play as a (kind of) evil necromancer more into undead shenanigans than saving the world! Command quirky minions, outsmart foes, and snag their souls to power up your team. Expect strategic combat, laughs, and plenty of mischief.
As a necromancer, players can capture the souls of defeated enemies and transform them into formidable undead companions. The game features over 20 unique necromancy spells across 5 schools of magic, including Affliction, Darkness, Life Drain, Summoning, and Dark Pacts. This allows players to tailor their necromancer's abilities to their preferred playstyle, whether that's summoning hordes of zombies, inflicting debilitating status effects, or draining the life force of foes.
In addition to customizing the protagonist, players must also carefully manage their team of undead minions. The game encourages strategic party building, as players equip their companions with powerful gear and optimize their skills to create a well-rounded and effective squad. Reviewers have praised this aspect, noting that it adds depth and replayability as they experiment with different team compositions.
The game's turn-based combat system allows players to carefully plan their moves and spells. While the player directly controls the necromancer, the undead allies participate automatically, creating a sense of strategic party management. Reviewers have described the combat as "satisfying" and "well-balanced," providing a good challenge without feeling overly punishing.
The open-world map is filled with hidden paths, puzzles, and secrets for players to uncover. Solving these challenges rewards players with unique equipment and items, providing a sense of discovery and accomplishment. Reviewers have praised the design of these puzzles, noting that they are well-crafted and encourage players to thoroughly explore the game's environment.
Despite the dark fantasy setting, the game's narrative is characterized as a "unique blend of dark fantasy and humor." Players are guided by the ghost of a cheeky white mage, and the overall tone is described as light-hearted and comedic, with plenty of witty banter and unexpected twists. Reviewers have consistently praised the game's writing and narrative as one of its strongest aspects.
