Hands of Necromancy

Por pouco não dropei, o game vale a pena mas tem sérios bugs com os cenários, que impossibilitam vc de prosseguir e tem q voltar no save. Tem muitos problemas também de hitbox e o principal defeito talvez seja o level design problemático, você morre 80% das vezes por causa do cenário e passa metade do tempo de game perdido. Ok é impressionante o game ter menos de 300mb, é gigante, os cenários são imensos e o game dura muito (nem joguei as fases bônus de expansão), tirando a hitbox a gunplay é muito boa, te da vontade de usar todas as armas e são todas muito boas. 6,5/10

It isn’t terrible but it does have some drawbacks. Map design stands out as being excellent although I disagree that this should be called a metroidvania. I liked the shapeshifting for different abilities. Ammo and health potions are often stingy and I found myself relying on the shapeshifting forms to avoid running out of ammo. Ammo often only comes 2-3 shots per pickup. None of the weapons feel very powerful. Most of them have very slow moving shots, and even basic enemies can take many shots to kill. There is an item to animate a dead enemy to fight for you, but I found those very weak. The revived minions would struggle to follow me very far, although they did have their uses. I would say the biggest drawback is the underpowered weapons.

This game is a must play a real hidden gem on steam!

Easily the worst level design I've seen in a retro shooter, plus the weapons lack any real impact, the crosshair is ugly and basic, they tease you with transformations in the tutorial and then you dont see any for a while, and the enemies are all very basic and bland. Only positive is the soundtrack, which is atmospheric and solid.

找到特定法术后居然能随时变换形态（石巨人、毒蛇等）来应对一些地图机制，好好玩......第一次在复古fps见到这样的设计，很有意思 虽然还没走出first hub但体感上地图比HEXEN好走不少，设计也符合逻辑，暂且没见到什么恶意隐藏路线[spoiler]和一些老游戏特有的答辩解谜[/spoiler]，场景奇幻味很浓 —————————————————————————— 一口气走完了hub 1，太好玩了......路线流畅合理的同时完全不失迂回贯通的设计，印象是非常正统味道的黑暗幻想世界观下死灵法师的冒险，危机四伏的森林、地狱、不洁的教堂......场景美观度都非常高。几句台词和语音就让主角显得性格鲜明，作为独立作品来说质量和体量都很足。fps爱好者和奇幻爱好者大概都能从中找到自己的快乐吧。 —————————————————————————— 制作精美程度令人称奇

Charmingly unpolished GZDoom TC that has that cheapo Witchaven/Arthurian Legend/budget Heretic feel that I crave. The weapon feedback didn't bother me like it does other reviewers, but is undeniably fairydust light touch. It feels much more like being a frail necromancer throwing spells around than Heretic and especially Hexen, and I think it gives HoN a unique feel. Impressively colossal level design at points (I am partway through part 2, where this really applies). Bonus points for OTT cheesy 'I got my local youth theatre drama teacher to do this' character voice acting, absurd. I'm not exactly discerning as I am a fantasy FPS junkie, but if that's your bag I would recommend. No real surprises, just a fun passion project with lots of charm and rough edges.

I loved the vibes, retro graphics and feels like a really polished WAD. The spells and level design are amazing, I love the verticality to the levels and nonlinear feel to all of it. Being able to use the different spells to combo off the enemies was great, and of course the transformations are an inspired addition, granting access to other areas of each map with secrets galore. It's sick as hell, made me feel like a kid again. Crack open a can of beer and grab your favorite snack, if you want to feel like a wizard loves to go "hmm" in the most evil voice you've ever heard every 5 seconds, then this is the game for you. I haven't finished the game at the time of this review obviously, but I will absolutely be playing more. Thanks for the nostalgia.
