This is tremendous stuff, a game that could absolutely have been released alongside Raven Software’s mid-90s fantasy shooters and held up. (Although people would have been mystified by the lighting tech.) Admittedly, you can get Hexen for a buck-fifty right now, but there’s a good chance you already did. Hands Of Necromancy is a welcome addition to that fold, and developers HON Team have become a name to follow.

Hands of Necromancy II achieves exactly what it sets out to do - to be a fun homage to classic FPS such as Heretic, Doom and Quake. Quality arsenal and complex levels offer hours of fun shooting experience.

Hands of Necromancy II feels like a classic FPS that has you using magic to battle enemies and bring the fallen ones back to life to fight with you; it's so much fun to play!
