The aforementioned item limit essentially means that the item synergies and gameplay diversity that literally define this genre are conspicuously absent. We could reel off a laundry list of complaints. Captured on Nintendo Switch (Handheld/Undocked) That’s such a basic thing and would have made the game far breezier and more fun. You’ve got a fun, speedy dash move to help you get in and out of enemy range, but it’s very limited and on a cool-down, so you can’t even zip about the dungeon when you’ve cleared it out.

Between floors, you’re able to send items back to the “hub” area to use, abuse and upgrade for your next attempt, but there’s very little more to it than that. Kill enemies, get a key, fight a boss, go to the next floor. It has the ostensible structure of Enter the Gungeon, but with none of the gameplay variation that makes that title so compelling. You’ve seen all of it before, and done much better. Okay, obviously that’s untrue, but we’re trying to inject some entertainment value into this review of a game that it’s shockingly difficult to write anything interesting about. We’d say it’s best not to get attached to them, but you won’t really need them anyway as their A.I is rubbish and they couldn’t hit the side of a barn – a major problem given that the third boss is the side of a barn. Resurrected enemies level up as they fight, but they’re easily killed. General combat sees you slashing at your enemies ala Zelda, but upon defeat, it’s possible to reanimate their corpses in order to fight alongside you. We’ll come back to this nonsense shortly, but an explanation is in order. This would maybe, maybe be OK, but the central mechanic of the game – resurrected monsters that fight on your side – take up a slot each. It’s hamstrung by one major and completely insane design flaw you can only carry four items. That’s really not to undermine the no-doubt hard work and passion of the developers, but there’s just nothing whatsoever to get your teeth into in Sword of the Necromancer. What this amounts to is a roguelike dungeon crawl with so little focus it’s almost embarrassing.
