Beating the Necromancer Without Cheese Tactics

You know that feeling when you want to play an RPG but don’t actually want to play an RPG? Necromancer gets it.

With 4.3 stars from 31,000+ reviews and over 500,000 downloads, this minimalist idle game Necromancer by PrismaThunder lets you build an army of undead creatures, from zombie squirrels to literal gods, while barely lifting a finger.

What Makes Necromancer Worth Your Time?

A Monster Collection That Doesn’t Take Itself Seriously

While most RPGs obsess over “epic” dragons and demons, Necromancer embraces absurdity:

  • G-class monsters: Think holy knights… and also sentient carrots.

  • Hall of Fame: Your strongest monsters break level caps, so your favorite undead rabbit can eventually rival a demigod.

  • No gacha pressure: Summons are straightforward, no 0.01% drop rates here.

(How many games let you field an army of undead squirrels against a god? This one does.)

Idle Done Right

Unlike some “idle” games that still demand constant check ins, Necromancer truly plays itself:

  • Offline progress: Close the app, come back later to rewards.

  • Auto battle: Skills trigger automatically (though manual timing helps in boss fights).

  • Battery sipper: Runs smoothly even on older phones.

Retro Charm Without the Jank

The pixel art looks straight out of a 2005 browser game, but that’s part of its appeal:

  • Simple, clean UI: No convoluted menus.

  • Whimsical designs: Even the grim reaper looks oddly cute.

  • Lightweight: Under 100MB install size.

Where Necromancer Falls Short

Repetition Sets In Fast

  • Quests recycle: “Save the animals” is your only objective… forever.

  • Limited events: No holiday updates or special dungeons.

  • Shallow strategy: Team composition matters less than raw stats.

No Cloud Saves = Risky Progress

Delete the app? Your undead army vanishes forever.

Basic Meta Game

  • No gear system: Monsters only grow via levels.

  • Skill upgrades are linear: Lightning > Blizzard > everything else.

How to Actually Progress (Without Losing Interest)

Auto Battle Nuances

  • Lightning is king: Prioritize upgrading this skill first.

  • Blizzard helps early: Falls off later, don’t overinvest.

  • Check in 2x/day: Morning/evening to collect loot and resummon.

Summoning Strategy

  • Reroll early: Aim for at least one G-class monster in your first 10 summons.

  • Ignore commons: Squirrels and rabbits won’t cut it long-term.

Boss Dungeon Tips

  • Manual skill timing: Activate Lightning right before boss ultimates.

  • Push at reset: Boss difficulty scales, attack right after daily reset for easier wins.

You’ve built your army of undead squirrels and cosmic gods. Now what? The real test begins in Necromancer’s infinite boss dungeons, where most players hit a wall around Floor 50. Here’s how to push further without falling into common traps.

Why Boss Dungeons Matter

These endless challenges are your only source of:

  • Rare summoning shards (for G-class monsters)

  • Massive XP/gold boosts

  • Bragging rights (no, really, the leaderboards exist)

How many players waste weeks grinding normal stages instead of optimizing for bosses? Don’t be them.

Pre Dungeon Prep: What Actually Works

Team Composition

  • 1 Carry + 4 Sacrifices:

    • Your strongest G-class monster (preferably a god/dragon)

    • Four low level summons to eat boss attacks

  • Why this works: Bosses target weakest units first. Let your cannon fodder die while your carry deals damage.

Mandatory Upgrades

  • Lightning (Lv. 30+) – Your main DPS source

  • Attack Buff (Lv. 20) – More impactful than Blizzard late-game

  • Pushers (Lv. 10) – Knocks bosses back to buy time

Skip: Health upgrades, your fodder will die regardless.

Timing Is Everything

  • Best time to push: Right after daily reset (boss difficulty resets)

  • Manual skill triggers:

    1. Wait for boss to charge ultimate (red glow)

    2. Activate Lightning + Attack Buff simultaneously

    3. Let Pushers stall when skills are on cooldown

Phase by Phase Breakdown (Floors 1-100)

Early Floors (1-30)

  • Auto-battle works: Save manual control for later

  • Farm shards here if stuck on higher floors

Mid Floors (31-70)

  • Start manual play: Bosses one shot non G class units

  • Key tactic: Let 4 units die immediately, your carry gets +100% attack (hidden buff)

Late Floors (71+)

  • Requires specific G-class:

    • God of War (best): 15% execute at low HP

    • Dark Dragon: 5% max HP burn per hit

    • Avoid rabbits/squirrels, they cap out here

Advanced Tricks Most Players Miss

The Reset Exploit

  1. Reach a high floor (e.g., 65)

  2. Force-close app before wipe

  3. Reopen, you’ll restart the floor with full HP

*(Works 3x/day before anti cheat triggers)*

Fodder Cycling

  • Summon 10x common monsters

  • Feed them to your G-class for +1% stats each (hidden mechanic)

Offline Progress Hack

  • Game calculates boss damage based on active playtime

  • Close app for 2+ hours, return to easier bosses
