Undying One

Undying One is a real-time combat game in which you play as a necromancer, turning defeated enemies into loyal summons and expanding your control over the dead. You command your undead army, cast spells and develop your abilities through use. Battles combine real-time action with an active pause system for issuing orders and planning.

Command the undead

Fallen enemies can become summons in tank, mage, support or DPS roles. They retain their stats, spells and behaviors, and grow alongside you. You can send them to overwhelm enemies, hold defensive positions, focus on key targets or retreat to safety.

Summons choose targets, spells and priorities according to threat level, distance, enemy weaknesses and their assigned role. They can also use randomly selected tactical behaviors, so encounters vary.

Combat and progression

Active pause lets you issue precise orders, manage your forces and cast spells at a chosen moment, then switch back to real-time action. Spells grow stronger as you cast them, while summons gain power if they survive. Stronger spells cost more, and mana remains a constant pressure.

Runs and unlocks

Between runs, you can spend in-game currency in a shop to unlock permanent upgrades, spells, stat bonuses and archetypes. Challenges and the Infinite Arena mode are also included.

Unlockable mutators let you customize runs with modifiers such as random starting spells, reduced maximum mana, increased vulnerability, disabled support spells and unstable corpses. Each mutator has its own unlock condition and increases run rewards.
