I like it alot, their is definitely bugs with the AI, but i've found if i just give them the follow command and respam the send button a few times all the minions will attack. Bit of an annoyance but fun. It's like Hades but your a necromancer!

very good game but always starting from the first map is boring. If they make it optional it would be very cool.

This game has potential, but there are some flaws. The artwork is fantastic, the world and story are well written, the main character controls well. The horde forgets what it's doing, your attacks and upgrades are a little weak. Overall, decent game that misses the mark.

I think this game is very good. Some reviews talk about there being many bugs but I've only seen one and it's just a single corpse being un-resurrectable, not that bad.

This game was and interesting and engaging. Pros + The story, I loved the macabre story. + Lore and setting was intriguing. + Character were unique and i want to know more about them. + Combat was fun, spell great variety made each round unique, army management was easy but a bit hit and missed when it came to attacking every so often. Act like a weak mage , hide behind your army and avoid range attacks and you will easily finish the game with that mind set in mind. + Controls were easy to understand and master. Cons - Bugs were annoying and one with the giant where you sacrifice round it caused it to get stuck forcing me to quit the round. When using bone attack spell with final boss caused crashes. But other then those 2 bugs, the others could be over looked there. - Achievements was a pain in the butt, even wrote my first ever guide to help with one. The worst was dying 100 time I set out to die about 86-93 time give or take. Overall, I give 7.5 out of 10 I had a good time with this game. you will too if your enjoy a macabre game.
