Necromancer's Quest Beta
Tags for Necromancer's Quest Beta
Description
In the Four Kingdoms, a troubled region in a distant world, necromancy and dark magic are feared and despised.
A young and powerful necromancer, however, wants to show to his country that necromancy isnโt necessarily an โevilโ art; to reach such goal, heโs going to help people and solve quests by using his skills and, well, an undead army.
โNecromancerโs Questโ is a turn-based strategy game: build and expand your necropolis, gather resources, raise undead soldiers, complete quests and defend yourself from enemy incursions to show the world that there can be a good necromancer!
NOTE: The game is still a beta version; it could be largely modified in the next weeks, and weโll do our best to improve it with any feedback. The story itself is just a โpremiseโ for a much larger one. During the beta weโll just implement minor fixes and balancing issues; for the bigger fix, weโll work on an ultimate version to release in the future.
FOR CHROME USERS:
We will soon release also a WebGL version that will work on Chrome.
Because the Unity WebGL compiler is still in a preview version, we canโt guarantee there wonโt be technical issues. If you experience any problem, you can always try to play it with Firefox with the Unity Web Player installed.
How to Play
A โhow to playโ is shown at the beginning of a new game and itโs always available in the diary.
Read the diary to follow the necromancerโs story.
To buy things โ buildings, units and spells โ go through the Domain panel (in the upper-left corner).
To examine your status โ number of units, mana and gold upkeep, fame, military strength, active spells, existing buildings, Necropolis health โ go through the Overview panel (in the lower-left corner).
Quests are enlisted in the Quest panel (in the upper-right corner).
The game log is in the lower-right corner: there youโll be able to look at the current turnโs number and events.
To gather resources you can build many buildings in your necropolis, or get them by solving quests and defeating incursions.
The incursions will randomly begin after the tenth turn, and, just like the quest, theyโll get stronger with any turn, so never let your guard open.
TIP: Before beginning a quest, look carefully at its difficulty level; if you anyway choose a battle too hard to win, remember you can always retreat. If you fight a hard battle and your army is destroyed, remember you can always load the last saved game: it will bring you at your last turn โ the game is auto-saved every turn!

During the end-game(end/after the campaign)the game becomes extremely hard,and the difficulty scaling is extreme.The new quests are harder and harder,while the lack of a x10,x25,x100 buy button makes you waste minutes at a time to buy market and resource upgrades.
Overall,the game is awesome and i would like to see it finished,but try to help the player or give them a reward for finishing the campaign(like the ability to ''turn off'' base attacks.They become the most difficult problem to deal with since they constantly drain your minion count every few turns,forcing you to rebuy huge amounts of them)
Those are very good ideas! Thank you! We'll consider them and try to insert them in a future release, if possible. Right now we couldn't find a way to make a "neverending mode", but we'll see what we'll be able to do. Thank you again and keep having fun! ;)

I like it, and it shows a lot of promise. Most of the flaws I've noticed from my, let's just say half hour of playtime, seem to be mostly oversights. The UI is a bit rough, LOTS of clicking that could be cut down on with some hotkeys. And a few menus should be a bit more... fluent. A buy all option for units would cut down on my turn time a lot, since I have to replenish every battle or two.
Thank you! We'll consider all of your ideas for the next release... thank you for helping us improving! :)

This game needs some global income boosts for late game. One "easy' attack takes me dozen of turns to recover from. Not only has progress come to a halt, I am actually losing ground to the ever increasing difficulty. This game needs a major rebalancing.
Your idea about the income boost in the late game is good, we're putting it down; about difficulty you met, as we said to the other players, in the beginning, it should be normal to find it hard; after many tries, though, you'll find out that you just have to find your strategy. One of us, in his first run, had the same difficulty you met; after 2-3 games, he got to destroy any invasion without any loss. Just keep trying! ;)

Not bad. But let me point out the weakpoints that I found: You should be able to see the amount of units you already have (and the cap) when you are going to buy new ones as well as in the Domain Tab. I think the resources are a bit imbalanced and Upgrades (at least for Mana and Gold) seem to be too small for the price you have to pay. Either that or the price for units and new buildings is too high (or maybe both). For my taste there are way too many resources and buildings to keep track of, but that may be different for other players. Right now the game feels a little bit like an Idle, so if you could somehow make the story stand out more (if that is possible), I would appreciate it. As you know I enjoy your games and the fact that you put so much dedication into each and every one of them, but since this game is in Beta and because I want to help you improve it, my comment may sound a bit critical with a minimal amount of compliments. I'm sure you understand, though.
We surely appreciate your help! :) About the amount of units, you can easily see it in your domain: standing on the necromantic power icon (it will show you both your amount of units and their maximum number). About the cost for the market and the shrine, we could modify it in the future; right now, it is balanced so that you should be able to repay every market level within 2 turns. About the story, right now we had to put almost all of it in the diary, but maybe, in the future, we'll try some other way to show it. About the "idle" sensation we understand what you mean; on the other hand, unlikely idle games, in this one you have choices to make and you can loose. Anyway, we'll see what we'll be able to improve in the future! :) Thank you , tell us any other thought about the game you'll have and keep having fun!
