Unleash Death on Lands Desecrated by Life in Necroking, a Turn-based Tactics Roguelite Deckbuilder
Prepare to embrace the shadows as you delve into the world of Necroking, where necromancy isn’t just a dark art—it’s a way of life. Developers Alawar and KORO.GAMES have unleashed an early glimpse into their latest creation, a medieval turn-based tactics roguelite enriched with deckbuilder mechanics. This game promises a deep dive into a world where life is the enemy and death reigns supreme.
Command Your Undead Legions
As the titular Necroking, players are plunged into a somber realm where they must conquer territories teeming with the living. The game challenges you to master the art of necromancy, managing a growing army of undead minions through real-time tactical combat. With over 30 unique units of malevolent creatures at your disposal, each skirmish requires strategic prowess and quick thinking.
Build Your Skull Deck to Dominate
The core of Necroking lies in its innovative Skull Deck system. Players collect and utilize Skulls, each granting new abilities and crucial upgrades to their spectral troops. These enhancements are vital as you traverse through chaos-stricken cities, quaint villages, eerie graveyards, and beyond, leaving a trail of destruction in your wake.
A Blend of Nostalgia and Innovation
Necroking not only pays homage to classic tactics games but also innovates with its roguelite elements, ensuring no two playthroughs are alike. The game’s pixel art style is meticulously hand-crafted, striking a chord of nostalgia while catering to modern aesthetics. As you progress, the game continuously throws new challenges and unique scenarios your way, bolstered by a variety of difficulty options and a compelling New Game Plus mode.
Are You Ready to Rule the Darkness?
The game’s open playtest is currently available, inviting players to step into the dark before the full launch on Steam later this year. Whether you’re strategizing over which unit to deploy next or deciding which ability to enhance, Necroking offers a rich, endlessly replayable experience that’s as engrossing as it is merciless.
