What is Praise Dead?

You play a necromancer defending a village from demons in a dark-fantasy roguelike auto-battler. Assemble zombies from villagers’ and monsters’ body parts, assign them to produce resources by day, and send them into automatic battles at night. Persistent progression helps with harder ritual levels, while Endless Mode pits your village against escalating demon waves.

+you enjoy balancing resource production against your squad’s combat needs
+you like dark fantasy centered on necromancy and gore

Not for you if...

−you want direct control over each attack during battles
