Description





In a desperate move to end all wars that have been rampaging the world for decades, the mages provoked The Cataclysm. Massive balls of pure magic obliterated nearly everything. A strange purple mist propagated everywhere, with hordes of bloodthirsty mutants coming at night.



Our only hope is now to banish all magic from this accursed world by casting The Last Spell, requiring several days of uninterrupted incantation whilst a few strained Heroes try to protect those damned mages.



The Last Spell is a tactical RPG with roguelite elements in which you have to defend a city against hordes of deadly enemies.

During daytime, prepare your Heroes, carefully choose how to rebuild your Haven and position your defenses. Over the night, exterminate all the monsters coming at your walls with a large range of weapons and skills. Then heal, level up, and repeat until the Magic Seal is broken.





Turn-Based Tactical RPG:

● The whole RPG package: a flurry of stats, skills, perks, traits… and more.
● Tons of items: armors, weapons, trinkets and potions… with their own stats and skills, as well as optional random modifiers. Each weapon has its own skillset and playstyle!
● Build your own classes: upgrade your heroes with stat bonuses and perks, and equip whatever gear you wish. Want to make a glass cannon rogue/mage fighting with a gun? Do it!
● Manage your squad of heroes: they’re strong, but they are few and have access to limited resources. Healing and mana are scarce, so try to find a good balance.

Hordes of Evil:

● Think and adapt: you will face swarms of deadly enemies with only a few hardened heroes. Optimize your positioning and plan your actions: big AOE attacks, crowd control, buffs, poison... Every Action Point counts towards another day of survival.
● Enemies have strengths and weaknesses that will challenge your wits. And because hard is not enough for us, be prepared for the terrifying Elites!
● Each map will end with epic fights against unique mind-bending bosses.



Protect the Haven:

● Rebuild the city to help you in-between fights. Get healed, forge new magical weapons, get new heroes. Spend your resources wisely, commander!
● Build up your defenses: walls, traps, towers, catapults… every tiny bit of help is welcome.
● Protect the Magic Circle at all costs! If you lose it, humanity is doomed.
● 5 Havens to protect, each with their own setup and challenges requiring you to tailor your strategy to beat the Great Evil.

Roguelite Elements:

● The game is meant to be hard. You will fail… A lot. But every time you do, you’ll grow harder, better, faster, stronger!
● Procedurally generated enemy waves, characters, weapons and a ton of unlockables will keep you entertained until the real world collapses.
● Tailor each run thanks to the Omens: a limited amount of bonuses that can be picked for the upcoming run. Do you prefer more Action Points, more characters, sturdier defenses, better loot? Experiment to find your preferred tools of destruction.
● Scale the difficulty to your liking, with 6 levels of Apocalypse to entertain even the most crazy hardcore players.



Headbanger Soundtrack:

● Over 25 tracks of thunderous synths-driven progressive metal to guide you through this joyous slaughterfest
● Composed by the incredible Rémi - The Algorithm - Gallégo

A lot to like here

I wasn't expecting to like this one nearly as much as I do. The game tackles complexity in an interesting way. The options available to you really start to open up quickly but the depth of those options isnt so consuming that the randomness takes away from player agency. It actually does a good job of keeping the depth of the consequences of the randomness rather shallow, so there are a TON of options but you never feel too far away from setting up how you'd like to plan to be. Each play feels unique as a result, but also never feels like you're simply at the mercy of bad luck. If you're looking for some good retro vibes, the sound design for this game is absolutely on point. The graphic design is surprisingly fantastic - there is a lot going on but nothing sneaks through in all the clutter. The turn based combat is what had me intrigued most of all, and it's handled really well. I was worried for this style of game that the pacing would be slow and tedious in the later stages, but it doesn't feel that way at all, and the way that the game resolves enemy turns keeps the momentum going quite nicely. I love that you can copy codes for your hero customisations in game. I wish they gave you an option to simply save presets in game, though. Only reason I drop a star here is the lack of mac compatibility - otherwise a tremendous purchase!

Tactically Intensive.

Not a fan of roguelikes but great game. Ambience is amazing as well.

Fun as hell!

I got the game from Amazon Prime, it's a very adictive and well constructed Tower Defense. The soundtrack is a banger and the animations of every weapon are sick. Nice game to add to your collection.

Great game

Turn based zombie apocalypse game. It's a tactical RPG with some light city building. Interesting graphics, gameplay and setting.
