Using Iratus’s dungeon as a base, player’s are able to embark on ever-changing battles, that will require players to use all of Iratus’s abilities and minions in order to achieve victory and replenish the necromancer’s supply of useful “items”. This morbid crafting, along with Iratus's other necromantic powers in Alchemy, Magic, and Tactics, will level up as Iratus re-remembers his powers and reestablishes his domain over death itself. Collecting body parts from fallen enemies allows him to create various undead minions to fight in his name, such as Skeletons, Zombies, Vampires, and Banshees. While heroes are renowned for the loot they'd collect in other RPGs, Iratus is only interested in their corpses. If their morale is past the breaking point, enemies might flee the fight or even die from fear.

Depending on the monster and their abilities, they can lower the morale of the heroes they fight. The combat system is designed to avoid repetitive battles that are common to the genre and instead focus on unique strategic experiences and tactical situations that differ as your progress.īecause Iratus's minions are undead, players now possess the means to affect morale meters that burdened them in other games. Failure results in permanently destroyed minions, so players will need to think through every fight to hold onto valuable resources.

Debuffs, minion types, even movement will impact a fight for better or worse. Each fight is highly strategic, making every action in a battle matter. Iratus adds plenty of challenge to the classic turn-based combat system. Finally ready to strike, gamers will take up his grisly (if sardonic) mantle and rebuild an army to defeat the pesky heroes that have taken residence underground. After many years dead, he has risen from the grave to reign terror on a world that has grown too comfortable for his liking. Iratus: Lord of the Dead tells the story of a dark necromancer on a quest for vengeance.
