Necrocat

Necrocat is a card roguelike in which you play as Twilight, moving across battlefields to face the armies of the feared Necrocat. You collect items represented by cards and use them against monsters as you journey toward the necromancer.

The journey

Your goal is to defeat the monsters and uncover the dark figure behind the necromancer’s alias. To face the Necrocat, you must collect his amulets, which contain fragments of his dark soul. Each amulet you gain after a conquest gives Twilight more abilities and strength, so he can return to the battlefield stronger.

Cards and battlefields

You move through grids of cards in different sizes by choosing a direction to collect an item or enter a battle with a monster. Defeating monsters brings stronger enemies and greater rewards. Regions have different numbers of enemies and items, as well as battlefields with varying sizes and shapes; some items are more useful in smaller or larger fields, so each map calls for a different strategy.

Amulets and upgrades

Each region has soul-fragment goals that you reach by defeating monsters. Meeting these goals earns amulets, which you can upgrade to increase their power. If you reach a goal you have already achieved, you receive corrupted souls instead, which you can use to further enhance your amulets. As you collect and use more amulets against the necromancer’s armies, the Necrocat becomes more vulnerable, bringing you closer to facing him.
