Critic Reviews
- Overall, The Last Spell is a fun, if complicated, tactical RPG. With building components and the ability to level up, there’s plenty to do here. It’s a lot to take in, especially initially, but there’s plenty of fun (and horror) to be had if you stick with it.
Jemma Casson · May 17, 2023 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - As fun and impressive as The Last Spell is, I almost feel like it’s aged me. I am the type of person who goes in for long, heavy board games, loves to lose so that I can go again bolder and wiser, and relishes gnawing on two or more game-changing possibilities. Yet, I turned away from The Last Spell more than once because I couldn’t bear the idea of going through the stress again. In the right mood, The Last Spell is a gift and treasure.
Bob Richardson · Apr 01, 2023 Reviewed on PCRead full review - The Last Spell is the end of days for this world wreaked by war, and your group of Heroes is all that stands between what remains of humanity and a slow demise as the fog encroaches and the undead approach. The dark atmosphere and challenging gameplay can make for a really satisfying experience however, and it is in the darkest of times that one’s worth as a hero is truly shown.
Camrin Santchi · Mar 27, 2023 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Overall, The Last Spell is an incredibly fresh and satisfying entry to the strategy RPG genre. Its learning curve may be brutal, but that’s part of its charm as you slowly chip away at its many progression systems and start catching glimpses of light at the end of the demon-infested tunnel.
Shane Boyle · Mar 25, 2023 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - The Last Spell made me realize that a siege is the perfect video game scenario. It allows you to focus on a single area, and gives the player a chance to customize their base. It also lends itself to a small group of heroes standing bravely against a horde of faceless enemies. Combine that with other popular features such as roguelike development, and you have a pretty fun game. But spend some time with The Last Spell, and you will see how differently it plays.
Jaina Hill · Mar 16, 2023 Reviewed on PCRead full review - It is difficult to score The Last Spell, because it's a game that does so much so well, from the music to the game balance to charming writing.
Trent Cannon · Mar 09, 2023 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - The Last Spell is a great package, integrating great core combat mechanics with both management and plenty of progression opportunities. Trying to take down mutant waves by using the minimum amount of resources, while pondering what upgrades can improve character performance never gets old.
Andrei Dumitrescu · Mar 09, 2023 Reviewed on PCRead full review - A roguelike tower defense game that doesn’t throw any punches in relation to its story, pixelated graphics and a killer soundtrack. I’m sure you’ll have a blast on the pursuit to banish all magic with The Last Spell.
Bennett Perry · Mar 27, 2023 Reviewed on PCRead full review - En definitiva, The Last Spell es un videojuego que tendría que gestionar mejor sus menús o la agilidad de las acciones de sus héroes. Creo que le hacen falta retoques en su usabilidad para hacer que lo agotador que es fuera más a su favor. Sin embargo, los muy hardcores del género lo recibiréis con los brazos abiertos. Porque una vez que aceptas su propuesta, el juego está muy bien.
Adrián Suárez · Mar 09, 2023 Reviewed on PCRead full review - The Last Spell è un gioco più articolato e impegnativo rispetto a quello che inizialmente si può sospettare: sopravvivere alle notti di assalti può richiedere tanti turni e la ripetitività dell'azione rischia di farsi sentire. Per contro l'esperienza è sufficientemente sfaccettata e profonda da risultare soddisfacente per i giocatori più dediti, che non hanno problemi a destreggiarsi tra statistiche e decine di diverse abilità speciali.

About the game
Trailers & Screenshots:
THE APOCALYPSE HAPPENED...
In a desperate move to end all wars that have been rampaging the world for decades, the mages provoked The Cataclysm. Massive balls of pure magic obliterated nearly everything. A strange purple mist propagated everywhere, with hordes of bloodthirsty mutants coming at night.
Our only hope is now to banish all magic from this accursed world by casting The Last Spell, requiring several days of uninterrupted incantation whilst a few strained Heroes try to protect those damned mages.
The Last Spell is a tactical RPG with roguelite elements in which you have to defend a city against hordes of deadly enemies.
During daytime, prepare your Heroes, carefully choose how to rebuild your Haven and position your defenses. Over the night, exterminate all the monsters coming at your walls with a large range of weapons and skills. Then heal, level up, and repeat until the Magic Seal is broken.
