ATTEND CLASS BY DAY, MUTILATE HORDES OF MONSTERS AT NIGHT
Welcome to Valorborn Academy for Adventurers, where you’ll start as a freshman and try to get noticed. Raise your grades, learn about your fellow classmates, attempt to impress the upperclassmen or your crush, perfect your weapon skills and abilities, complete assignments, and upgrade your standing in the Hall of Records. Gaining infamy and surviving hordes of enemies with all your limbs intact will take studying, going to class, and completing assignments to upgrade and master your skills. Become the coolest kid in school, or die trying.
RAISE YOUR SKILLS AND YOUR GRADES
Necromantic isn’t all about keeping your nose in a book, though. Use a variety of over 40 weapons and abilities that all come from the various classes. Raise your grades in a variety of ways to upgrade your skills and become more adept. After class and long into the night, you’ll explore nearby Kathedril, teeming with undead hordes. Do battle, collect gems and other rewards, then choose wisely in order to level up. Enter the Necromantic realms either as a solo adventurer or together in co-op mode.
MAKE FRIENDS AND IMPRESS YOUR CRUSH
Additionally, you can collect textbooks, which can be given as gifts to other students. Learn about your fellow students’ preferences through the yearbook, biographies, and casual conversations in the courtyard, where you’ll discuss lore, life, and love. Dive into this rich new fantasy world and see if you're capable of the challenges that await.
FEATURES
- UNCEREMONIOUS DEATH: Over 40 weapons and abilities are available to help you avoid a spectacular death (or at least come back with fewer missing limbs).
- BRAVE THE DANGERS AND GROW IN INFAMY: Even though you start out as a lowly freshman, you’ll get to enhance your abilities by taking classes to hone your skills, with endless combinations of builds available.
- BETTER WITH A FRIEND: Adventure alone or with a friend in online co-op multiplayer.
- HIT THE BOOKS: Raise your standing in the Hall of Records as you grow into a storied adventurer.
