Good game; bad game. On one side, I love the mechanics. on the other, it has permanent upgrades that make completion much more difficult. Thankfully I beat the game before I got those upgrades and wrecked my save with the upgrades; else this review would be a lot more negative XD.

Recommended 💀⚙️ Necrosmith is what happens when you combine a necromancer, a factory manager, and an army of undead creatures into one wonderfully strange strategy game. The main idea is simple but addictive: build your undead army, combine different body parts, upgrade your tower, and send your creations into battle against waves of enemies. Watching a ridiculous monster you assembled yourself become an unstoppable killing machine is incredibly satisfying. 🧟‍♂️🔥 The automation and management systems are the real highlight. You constantly improve your production, unlock new technologies, discover stronger combinations, and optimize your undead forces. Creating weird hybrids with unique abilities keeps every run interesting. ⚙️🦴 The pixel-art style, dark humor, and unusual gameplay loop give Necrosmith a lot of personality. It feels different from typical strategy games because half the fun comes from experimenting and seeing what kind of monsters you can create. 🧪 The late game can become repetitive, some combinations are much stronger than others, and the automation may reduce the feeling of direct control. Still, the unique concept and satisfying progression make it easy to keep playing. I wanted to raise an army of the dead. I accidentally created a factory that manufactures angry skeleton chickens with laser powers. 10/10. 😂💀 Necromancy has never been this efficient. 🧟‍♂️⚙️ Necrosmith combines necromancer-themed strategy, creature creation, automation, tower defense elements, resource management, and experimentation with different undead combinations.

As a caution before this review, I'd say that the game has an issue with balance. It kind of follows the Bullet Heaven mechanic of a boss timer that, if not prepared accordingly, would kill you in the spot and prevent your progression through the game. This wouldn't be a dealbreaker if not for the fact that the enemies it spawns are near the endgame, so unless you really have gone through the meta progression, you'll get stone walled from prepping for the final push. As well, that meta progression jumps from barely tangible to absolutely vital and outright game breaking, with the upgrade that allows you starting monster parts per day being out and out the only truly viable option apart from the Cat and the Blueprint. That said, I like the game for the music (the two that it uses, at least), its use of monster parts to create your own insane combination of weapons and abilities, and I like some of the secret combinations that aid you in traversing in the land; the diversity of different genres help make it stand out from other contemporaries. Hopefully this is a decent start to the series, and hopefully the sequel available now would aid in the pain points I listed here.
