Weird Johnny Studio, the creative minds behind Hero Tale, have introduced their latest project, the grimdark bullet heaven game titled Last Mage. In this roguelite adventure, you step into the shoes of the titular last mage, tasked with surviving a treacherous dungeon by unleashing a barrage of magical attacks against hordes of monstrous foes.
Set in a world where magic is forbidden and mages are hunted to near extinction, you find yourself as the Last Mage, sentenced to death within a dungeon. Your survival hinges on your magical prowess, as you battle to overcome the beasts lurking within the depths.
As you delve deeper into this dungeon (and yes, the pun on "darkest dungeon" is fully intended), your mission is to eradicate the creatures that infest it. To succeed, you must enhance your magical capabilities by gathering ancient artifacts and meticulously managing your mana reserves, ensuring you never run out at a critical moment.
Backpacking
While the concept of navigating a bullet heaven is familiar, Last Mage adds a unique layer to the grimdark theme with inventory management. Different backpacks you can unlock will affect your carrying capacity and organization. This means you'll need to strategically select and arrange your equipment to optimize the limited space available.
Last Mage is slated for release by the end of 2025, with a more precise date to be announced soon. Keep an eye out if this dark blend of Vampire Survivors and Backpack Battles catches your interest!
