Sword of the Necromancer is a dungeon crawler with elements of a roguelike, in which we play the hero who intends to fight a sinister necromancer and bring back to life his dead beloved. Before he can do this, however, the protagonist has to travel through vast underground areas and confront enemy troops.
Sword of the Necromancer is a dungeon crawler enriched with roguelike elements. The game was developed by the independent studio Grimorio of Games.
Sword of the Necromancer takes us to a fantasy world. The main character of the game is a warrior named Tama, who lost his beloved - Koko. The protagonist decides venture deep into the dark dungeons to kill the sinister necromancer and, with the power thus acquired, bring his beloved back to life.
The action in Sword of the Necromancer is shown from bird's eye view. We explore the procedurally generated dungeons and engage in dynamic battle;in addition to standard opponents, we also have to face powerful bosses. We use a variety of weapons in combat, including the eponymous sword, which enables us to resurrect our slaughtered adversaries to fight alongside us. As we progress, we gain more and more powerful equipment; in addition, we gain experience points and level up, improving protagonist's stats.
In contrast to classic roguelikes, the game does not feature permadeath mechanics. Yes, after death we lose all the equipment we have gained, but we keep half the experience points we have acquired. In addition, at certain moments we can leave the dungeon, although by doing this we will lose all gained EXP (although in this case we keep all our equipment).
Sword of the Nemcromancer features simple two-dimensional pixel-art graphics.

Checkpoint Gaming: 6 / 10 by David McNamara
As much as I wanted to love Sword of the Necromancer (particularly after getting further into the story) it’s held back by so many annoyances that I didn’t have an amazing time playing through it. There are definitely some cool ideas, and the enemy design in particular is excellent, but issues with its core gameplay keep it from being the fun little experience I was hoping for.

Sword of the Necromancer is a satisfying experience that leaves you rooting for the characters and reviving all of the monsters.
GameSpace: 6 / 10 by Damien Gula
If you are looking for a 2D dungeon crawler with some rogue-lite options, Sword of the Necromancer might just scratch that itch, but for me the legend didn't quite live up to what I had hoped.
