Is Spirit Mancer inspired by Mega Man, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure and Pokemon? It says here, and if that's even partially accurate, this 2D hack and slash adventure with deckbuilding mechanics just HAS to be added to your wishlist, especially when a playable demo is up for grabs.
From a Jeitaro favourite, Dear Villagers, and developers Sunny Syrup Studio, players go solo as a demon hunter, or pair up in a co-op, to defeat the evil queen using the titular weapon. Upon defeating thy enemies, the spirits can be summoned to use upon other unfriendly types.
Key features of Spirit Mancer include:
- Hack and Slash action combines with deck building elements - With a skill base card, you can summon demons to do your bidding and help you during combat.
- Local co-op support - Like in the old arcade times, join forces with a friend and jump together for an epic battle into a colourful and vibrant inferno.
- 100+ Unique enemies you can fight and capture - Huge variety of unique monsters and demons that you can fight and capture.
- Summon captured enemies to battle as spirit cards - Capture any demons into spirit cards then summon them out into battle as your friends.
- Deck building with 100+ spirit cards - Build your deck with demon spirits that you want in your pocket.
- 10+ Guns and weapons to be used - Blast any foes with a large variety of weapons.
- 8+ levels for you to explore - Beautiful beach, Volcanic fortress, Lush forest, and more Adventure a huge fantasy world of inferno with 20+ biomes to explore.
Spirit Mancer will be available to play during the Steam Next Fest, but eager beavers will be pleased to note that a pre-order is also available, including the Demon Hunter edition which comprises exclusive dragon and tarot cards, a comic book, artbook, and OST.
In the meantime, the release date is set for 22nd November 2024, available on Steam, PS5 and Switch.
