About The Last Spell
Defend your city's magic circle from endless hordes of mutants across multiple tactical turn-based battles, then rebuild and prepare during the day in this roguelite RPG where positioning, resource management, and loadout customization are everything. Face procedurally-varied enemy waves and brutal bosses across five havens, with permadeath runs letting you unlock permanent upgrades and difficulty modifiers to gradually overcome the apocalypse.

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 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

No saving between each day/night cycle? Really? Hard pass.2 found this helpful
Where has this game been my whole life1 found this helpful
The Last Spell, this is one of those games that gives me anxiety somehow, but I like it! You know you wont be able to live through the night, but you must. The rogue like experience is real. Each run gets you new improvements that will allow you to get further than the previous. It's super chill to relax after a day of work, kill some zombies, monsters or what ever that thing is, make some builds on your characters and think of some kind of strategy to overcome the challenge. The pixel art is lovely and attractive in it's way since it's kinda dark. In my humble opinion it's a great little game that will give you TONS of hours of gameplay.
Ball-crushingly hard, but very fun. If you've ever enjoyed Final Fantasy Tactics, this game shares a very similar combat system, albeit very modified to fit the gameplay loop. The dev's have done a wonderful job balancing the game, reworking useless talents, and adding unique flavor to almost every item. I will say though, I often feel gimped when I cant roll my Isolation/Specialist/Rifle crutch during boss fights but that just might be a skill issue.
I enjoy the planning and character leveling that this game provide. I also appreciate how it begins mildly but quickly escalates in difficulty making sure that you need to analyze your choices and streamline things for future runs. I recommend this to others who enjoy that Roguelite playstyle that pushes you to improve your gameplay and choices.
