About the game

Iratus: Lord of the Dead is a turn-based tactical roguelike RPG set in a dark fantasy universe. Lead an army of undead to help an angry necromancer in his quest to reach the surface world and bring death to the mortal realms!

The huge variety of tactical and strategic opportunities makes Iratus an  interesting finding for roguelike fans.

Plot and gameplay The player will act on the dark side as the necromancer Iratus. The storyline is focused on a necromancer imprisoned in a dungeon centuries ago and is now striving to break free regardless of the cost. The player will have to improve the belowground lair, create undead minions fr om the body parts of the dead, make challenging decisions, and take part in intricate tactical fights wh ere any mistake can mean defeat.

There are various kinds of the living dead: skeletons, vampires, zombies, banshees and other monsters under the player’s control; the dark side confronts the «forces of good» — religious fanatics. The more enemies the player defeats, the more body parts he gets to create new soldiers of his own army. Enemies have their own abilities — for example, some of them can throw bombs that can kill minions at the end of the round, others beat their comrades with a whip, increasing their characteristics. By attacking enemies, the player can take away both life points and mind points — if it is exhausted, the player has a chance to kill the enemy with one attack.
