Necropolis - Influence and Goals @ Mash Those Buttons

If you take the visuals of the Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker and the difficulty of the Demon/Dark Souls series, you’ll then get Necropolis. Dennis Detwiller, Creative Director at Harebrained Schemes, was kind enough to take our questions about their upcoming game.
