Game • 2022

A necromancer simulator. Assemble the dead using different body parts while upgrading your tower, combine the abilities of the different fantastic races to fight your way through the hordes of enemies and overrun the ’chosen ones’. To tell the truth, the dead are pretty, uhm, dumb.

Ages 12+, but every child is different

The game features cartoonish, dark-fantasy themes centered on necromancy and dismemberment. The complexity of resource management and tactical strategy requires a level of maturity typically found in early adolescents.
