About Be My Horde
Be My Horde casts you as Moriana, a necromancess who turns every defeated foe into a zombie servant. Harvested souls fuel upgrades and new necromantic abilities, while your growing horde fights for you across hand‑drawn 2D realms.
The game mixes short‑burst action with roguelite progression: each crusade lets you collect souls for upgrades, and permanent enhancements are managed through the Dominion base. It supports full controller, keyboard‑only, and mouse‑only inputs, with Steam Cloud saving your progress.
01 / THE GUIDE
Necromancy Power
When you defeat an enemy, it is instantly resurrected as a loyal undead minion. The description states that every slain foe becomes a resource for your army, allowing you to flood the battlefield with zombies, demons, or even sheep.
These undead troops act as your combat force, meaning you do not directly attack; instead, the horde you raise engages enemies on your behalf. The feature emphasizes that each enemy “belongs to you” once turned.
- Observe which enemy types convert quickly and prioritize them for a faster‑growing horde.
- Compare the visual impact of different minion varieties to decide which fit your preferred aesthetic.
02 / THE GUIDE
Unlimited Minion Spawn
The description notes there are “no limits” to the number of enemies you can turn into zombies, allowing you to fill the screen with hundreds of minions. This includes peasants, warriors, demons, flying bugs, and even sheep, as long as the creature “breathes.”
Because the limit is undefined, you can experiment with crowd density to see how the engine handles massive hordes, creating both a visual spectacle and a tactical advantage in overwhelming foes.
- Test different enemy groups to see which produce the most effective swarm.
- Watch how screen performance changes as you increase minion count.
03 / THE GUIDE
Roguelite Progression
During each crusade you collect souls from slain enemies, which can be spent on upgrades, new skills, and “sinister forms of necromancy.” The description frames death as an opportunity to become stronger through these upgrades.
Between crusades you can unlock additional abilities, while within a run you gain temporary perks that boost performance for that session. Permanent enhancements are managed through the Dominion base.
- Track which upgrades feel most impactful across multiple runs.
- Balance temporary run‑time perks with permanent Dominion upgrades for steady growth.
04 / THE GUIDE
Diverse Realms
You travel across multiple realms, each offering unique visuals, enemies, mechanics, and bosses. Weather conditions and environmental interactions—such as pushing foes into meteors or corrupting trees—add variety to each encounter.
Bosses can be weakened by absorbing their servants before confronting them directly, providing a strategic layer to realm traversal and encouraging use of the environment to increase enemy casualties.
- Notice how weather effects alter enemy behavior in each realm.
- Experiment with environmental hazards to maximize enemy deaths and soul harvest.
05 / THE GUIDE
Input Options
Be My Horde supports full controller, keyboard‑only, and mouse‑only configurations, giving players flexibility in how they command their horde. DualShock and DualSense controllers are explicitly listed as supported devices.
Steam Cloud is also enabled, and you can continue your Dominion upgrades across sessions.
- Try both controller and mouse setups to see which feels more natural for managing large hordes.
- Use Steam Cloud to keep your progress when switching between devices.
