Iratus: Lord of the Dead

Qualified thumbs up for enthusiasts of turn based tactics roguelike dungeon crawler. the standard difficulty is not particularly challenging and there are layers of systems that would be daunting for a casual. even for an enthusiast the runs are quite long -- the final 2 acts especially are a bit of a slog. the first 3 acts feel like a challenge where you are balancing resources and base building. once you get into act 4 it starts transitioning more into the lay-up. your base is built and you are overflowing with resources. it just becomes a matter of getting across the finish line but it doesnt feel like you are meaningfully growing anymore and it drags. also there are a lot of comparisons to darkest dungeon but this game is markedly different even if it shares a lot of systems and presentation. darkest dungeon is more about prepping for an excursion. iratus is a full on delve. resource, inventory, and mercenary management plays a far bigger role in darkest dungeon. both are fun and (overall) similar experiences but darkest dungeon is the more polished and evergreen game in the genre.

Was having fun but lost one of my best minions to a bug. Tried dragging it to the mortuary to heal and just disappeared. Pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. You would think is being a 6 year old game they would have worked out these things

simple to learn and full of vibes. I put about 100 hours into it. if you like turn based games or are a fan of the old school monster movies id give it a look. as soon as fall hits it just has those Halloween vibes story is basic but fun. I would say give it a try and thank me later.

It's a great game, several different setup, which again gives great value, for your money. And we both know, that's what you want.

A really great game that more people should play.

Got this during a sale event (it was 90% off), at the end of the day I'm not a fan despite the fact that it has things that I've had fun with.
