The Unliving Reviews

Good fun

really cool game.

This game has very interesting concepts of necromancy and it is fun to play. I do not think it deserves the mixed rating. Story plot is fun, the skills and horde leading works great (had some problems in the past, sometimes some units still get stuck but its rare)

I'd like the recommend this game, it's got heart, an interesting story, some great art, but it just doesn't feel finished. A lot of polish is needed to the game systems, and it will never get it since the game studio collapsed while it was in early access. When 99% of your DPS is your zombie horde, and they can't follow you or attack enemies 80% of the time it's just embarrassing. I've played phone games with better zombie ai. If only it got a few more patches...

Nice challenging game not by difficulty but because of its weird mechanics, minion ai is brain dead and 50% of your undead do nothing except when sacrificed, most of the time youre getting hit by weird projectiles that pass through all your hulking tier 3 undead that supposed to be meat shields in normal game logic, you lose health blocks most of the time by unknown reasons or weird hitboxes, lifeforce (mana) system is not sustainable either by sacrificing healers or clawing enemies in melee (you cant just close in to enemies since most of them can whittle your health block in an instant) no passive mana regen in this game, despite all of these i still play this abandoned game for the challenge and late game prestige difficulties, and there is no hybrid build in this game (hexweapon, minion lord and spell spammer) you can only choose one, buy if on sale and buy at your own risk, overall this game is enjoyable but amusingly frustrating but is certainly a time killer

Had fun with the game, gonna keep playing. Some of the undead pathing is stupid, but otherwise pretty fun

This game was and interesting and engaging. Pros + The story, I loved the macabre story. + Lore and setting was intriguing. + Character were unique and i want to know more about them. + Combat was fun, spell great variety made each round unique, army management was easy but a bit hit and missed when it came to attacking every so often. Act like a weak mage , hide behind your army and avoid range attacks and you will easily finish the game with that mind set in mind. + Controls were easy to understand and master. Cons - Bugs were annoying and one with the giant where you sacrifice round it caused it to get stuck forcing me to quit the round. When using bone attack spell with final boss caused crashes. But other then those 2 bugs, the others could be over looked there. - Achievements was a pain in the butt, even wrote my first ever guide to help with one. The worst was dying 100 time I set out to die about 86-93 time give or take. Overall, I give 7.5 out of 10 I had a good time with this game. you will too if your enjoy a macabre game.

I really wanted to like this. I love the art style, the sprites are great so visually it's beautiful. But It just isn't finished, ai patching is terrible and so many features that just aren't intuitive to navigate like menues, quests, currencies and so on. There's people out there that want a game like this, me included and you already have it at 75% if only the Devs would just come back to it and add the finishing touches and show some care.

This game still has to many bugs. I've had to hard close the app because of a UI bug. Lost all the resources from the run. Which is really the only reason to do a run at the early half of the game in the first place. The controller support is also clunky for Hex weapons. Great idea for a game. Not the best execution.
