Command Armies of the Dead
Undead Horde by 10tons Ltd. blends action RPG mechanics with real-time strategy, putting you in the role of a necromancer determined to conquer the living. By raising fallen enemies to fight on your side, you build an ever-growing army and march through villages, battlefields, and strongholds on your path to overthrow King Paladin Benevictor.
Stylized battles of necromancy and conquest
The game’s loop revolves around combat, looting, and army management. Each encounter lets you expand your horde with new undead units, whether they’re basic zombies, sturdier skeletons, or specialized minions. Looted weapons and items improve your necromancer directly, while upgrades strengthen your forces. Missions focus on clearing enemy settlements, defeating hero units, and reclaiming land across a campaign map. The progression system provides a strong sense of power growth, though repetition can set in after extended play.
Visually, the game uses a colorful, stylized 3D presentation that contrasts playful designs with its darker theme. The isometric perspective works well for keeping track of both your character and horde, while combat effects and spell animations add impact to battles. Each biome—whether forest, desert, or crypt—feels distinct and keeps the setting fresh. The audio design supports the atmosphere with eerie music and satisfying combat sounds, giving battles a lively edge.
Final thoughts
Undead Horde succeeds in delivering a satisfying mix of direct action and strategic management. Its appeal lies in the fantasy of commanding an ever-growing undead army and steadily taking over the world. While the narrative is thin and the gameplay loop can grow repetitive, it remains an enjoyable experience for anyone drawn to fast-paced strategy with a unique twist.
