Description

In Court of the Dead: Mourners Call, you're a Mourner, an allegiant of Death, working to end the celestial war between Heaven and Hell. To achieve this goal, you'll need to unite the factions of Bone, Flesh, and Spirit in the Underworld, each with its own unique path to rise up against the celestials. You'll strategically manipulate your influence within these factions, their strongholds and guilds, and within the Court of the Dead to achieve your ends. As you navigate the game, you'll need to balance your own ambitions with the need to maintain unity in the Underworld. With a playtime of 90 minutes, you'll have to make tactical decisions quickly, using resources like Etherea to further your goals. But beware, using Etherea carelessly can invoke the Dreadsgrip, a destructive force that consumes all it touches. Will you be the champion that unites the Mourners and achieves your ambitions, or will you fall to the dangers of the Underworld?
