    The game has some bugs but i cant think what minion game doesn't. overall game runs totally fine and has some good content. my only gripe is the lack of variety with powers/unlocks don't feel like a strength boost. im happy with my purchase as i got it on 80% discount. i recommend it. hopefully more future content in the works!

    In gameplay The Necromancer wields his scythe with his left hand, and uses magic with his empowered right hand. However, in the character art that is constantly displayed during dialogue, The Necromancer wields his scythe with his right hand, and uses magic with his left. Literally unplayable.
