What is None Shall Intrude: Descent?
Ever get tired of being the underdog in a dungeon crawler? In None Shall Intrude: Descent, you're the final boss. You play as a massive dragon, and your only goal is to crush every 'hero' brave enough to step into your lair.
Gameplay
Forget playing some weak hero crawling through a dungeon. In None Shall Intrude: Descent, you're the actual raid boss. You play as a massive dragon, and your entire job is to absolutely wreck waves of challengers trying to invade your space. It's not a 'sit back and watch' experience like TFT or Underlords; it's a roguelite deck-builder with tile-based combat. You'll spend your time manipulating elements and positioning yourself on a grid to maximize the carnage. There's a genuine power trip here—building an 'overpowered earth dragon' and just erasing everything on the screen feels incredible.
Because it focuses on the boss fantasy and tile movement rather than just drafting units, it doesn't feel like a Hearthstone Battlegrounds clone. You're making active decisions about how to control the board to keep those pesky heroes at bay. The core loop is addictive, but you'll definitely hit some rough edges. It's an indie project, and the UI can feel clunky at times. While some players call it "a really fun twist on the generic roguelike," others have warned that it's "riddled with bugs." It's far from a polished AAA experience, but that doesn't kill the vibe.
For a free prologue, the replay value is surprisingly solid. You'll keep coming back to see if you can break the game with a weird build or find a more efficient way to annihilate the challengers. It's a bit unpolished, but the premise is killer. I'd give it a 7/10—it's got a great foundation that just needs some shine to really hit its stride. Since it's free, you've got zero risk in downloading it to see if you can maintain your reign.

Verdict
“Easy and simple yet still pretty tactical. I wish there was a bigger skill tree, and more levels, but overall I have no complaints.”
Grab it. It's rough around the edges, but since it's a free prologue, it's a total no-brainer if you want to feel like an unstoppable raid boss for a few hours.
