Help defeat the dreaded Necrocat by adding the game to your Wishlist!
Necrocat is a card roguelike with simple mechanics but grand strategies. Step into the shoes of Twilight and move across the battlefield as you face the armies of the feared Necrocat and collect items that will aid you on your journey to the necromancer!
As you progress on your journey, you will encounter various cards along the way that represent the items collected and used by Twilight against the hordes of undead summoned by the dreaded Necrocat. Your goal is clear: defeat all the monsters and unmask the dark figure behind the necromancer’s alias. To defeat him, you will need to collect all the Necrocat’s amulets that hold fragments of his dark soul. The amulets collected after each conquest will bring more abilities and strength to Twilight, allowing him to return stronger to the battlefield each time.
Collect all the amulets you find and upgrade them to gain more power! It may not be possible to face all challenges empty-handed, but as you conquer more amulets and use them against the necromancer’s armies, the more vulnerable the Necrocat becomes, and the closer you get to facing him!
In grids of cards of varying sizes, you can play casually by simply selecting the direction you want to move to collect an item or engage in a battle with a monster. As monsters are defeated, more powerful monsters appear, and more rewards are given upon defeating them. Each region of the game will have a number of amulets that are acquired by reaching soul fragment goals collected after defeating each monster. Whenever you reach a goal that you had previously achieved, instead of earning the same amulet, you will receive corrupted souls, which will be used to further enhance the power of the amulets.
Each region or map will have different quantities of enemies and items, as well as different sizes and shapes of battlefields. Some items will be more useful in smaller or larger fields, and each type of map will require a unique strategy if you want to overcome your limits and truly defeat the Necrocat.
