Iratus: Wrath of the Necromancer DLC is now available!




In Iratus you find yourself fighting for the forces of darkness in the role of the titular necromancer—Iratus, recently freed from his millennia-long imprisonment.

You control an obedient army of the living dead, with skeletons, zombies, banshees and many other unliving warriors. Create your soldiers the only way a necromancer knows how: from the body parts of your slain enemies!


Expand and improve your underground lair. Strengthen your servants by researching secret rituals. Explore the twisted corridors and underground catacombs, and battle against lobotomized miners, greedy dwarves and corrupt mercenaries. Aid Iratus in his quest to recapture and eclipse his former power. Lead him to conquer the forces of good and unleash an eternal kingdom of death upon the world!

The sheer variety of tactical and strategic options makes Iratus a true treat for any ardent fans of the roguelike genre.




  • Play on the side of evil, embodied by the necromancer Iratus!
  • Expand and improve your underground lair.
  • 19 types of obedient servants: zombies, vampires, skeletons, mummies, banshees and many more!
  • Craft minions from the body parts of your conquered enemies.
  • Advanced combat system: to win you need to know both the strengths and weaknesses of your troops and enemies.
  • Iratus can kill his enemies not only by magic or claw but also by draining their sanity!
  • Each minion has six unique abilities for a total of nearly one-hundred abilities for you to command.
  • Four talent trees that alter the way you play: Alchemy, Magic, Ire and Destruction.
  • Roguelike elements: minions that die are gone for good and the game saves automatically, making each choice irreversible.
  • Detailed 2D graphics and a gloomy atmosphere of dark fantasy.
  • Various difficulty levels, satisfying every type of player from novice to hardcore.
  • Iratus himself is voiced by the voice-acting legend Stefan Weyte, famous for his performance as Caleb in the cult game series "Blood"!

Reminds me of old flash games in a way

Not bad. Could use some quality control, numerous grammatical and spelling errors make some of the text difficult to understand. Overall, a decently fun experience, but the replay value isn't very high once you've beaten the game a couple times. The game is not well balanced, certain minions are considerably more powerful than others. A good balanced minion would be the Lost Soul, but sadly most of the other minions simply outshine her because they are just that much more powerful.

A light weight Darkest Dungeon

Quite easy to get into and not as punishing as darkest dungeon. Difficulty raises in time with new enemies since is not as challenging at start. I like the touch that it brings with Iratus skills and spells. If you are looking for a more chilled darkest dungeon experience, this is it.

Im glad this game exists! 9/10

Game is has what DD except no bs mechanics. Its not bursty in rng where enemies destroy in a flash It doesnt have persistent debuffs that contribute to timewaste timewaste that is not in this game: micromanagement of heroes, healing them in taverns and church and so on.. no 50+ heroe nonsense.. You get cool 16 heroes if you need, but you can do 2 parties or 1 if you wish. Minimap what tells where path leads is very strategic in what you wish: ussually you think in each fork for a while and are happy with results rather than goinging aimlessly. Positives are: recipes, and monster creation itself.. Iratus powers, spells and pretty much music as well! As for maybe positives - minimap. Its ginormous but you gotta scroll a bit. Negatives: havent encountered so far, maybe replayability? Animations and spells and effects were iffy but I somehow got used to it without notice.

Takes Darkest Dungeon and makes it way better.

Personally i couldn't really get into Darkest Dungeon. I found the rng a little too unpredictable. But this game... i instantly got hooked. It has so many more mechanics and extra little management things you can do., and you create your own troops!.. like a mad scientist out of gruesome body parts! Whats not to like about that? The voice of the man who did Caleb in the Blood series is back, and his voice is just as good as ever. In a way this game kinda reminds me of Dungeon Keeper. Being bad is always good. Like i said, i'm normally not a big fan of games like this, but this one does it right. It's perfect. I'm hopelessly addicted. The learning curve is much easier in this one compared to DD, but it's still just as challenging. Although not as punishing. If you've leveled up one of your undead troops, and spent hours refining his/her skills,... and then suddenly they die in a blaze of glory... no problem.. you can get a "brain" that's roughly the same level, insert it in a new troop, and put back all those abilities and stats right back in. Jump right back in the game... No grinding needed.

Alright

CON - Most of my highly levelled starting team (5hours+ invested) has been wiped (on easy difficulty) after swapping in a recently unlocked new minion. Why would you punish the player for trying their new toys? How is one supposed to safely learn how a new composition works? - becoming repetitive after a while PRO + role-switch to bad guys is a funny idea + many minions to choose from + voiceover is entertaining
