War of the Necrocaster
A downloadable game for Windows
is a tiny necromancy based strategy game
## Story:
As De Vermis Mysteriis, the book of the worm, states, there can only be one master and one apprentice.
But once the apprentice becomes master, the old master must go. Thus is the law, unchanged since the beginning of time.
And so, once again, the war of the Necrocasters unfolds.
## Instructions:
With your mouse, you can use spell cards to summon undead underlings. Your undead underlings will attack the enemy necrocaster on his bier. To win the game, your underlings must kill the necrocaster.
There are 5 types of underlings: Skeletons, Zombies, Ghouls, Fiends, and Vampires. Summoning underlings uses up Mana. You can also use your Mana to upgrade either your underlings or your stats.
Be careful how you spend your Mana!

A cute little game where you buy and upgrade monsters that auto-battle against the enemy.
The art is the highlight of the game and well made. The interface is easy to read and understand and the monsters are simple but cute.
I like the concept of the game. Upgrading stuff and becoming stronger is fun. Currently, all upgrades are reset in each level. I wish you could take them over to the next stage, gradually unlocking stuff and growing stronger. I also wish the game was a bit longer.
Thanks for the feedback! Drahmen continues to work on a Game that's expanding on that prototype. If you're interested you could check out his discord https://discord.gg/ADRjBdtCRb
