About This Game

COMBAT IN THE SHADOW
Prepare your army for constant threats. Monsters emerge from the darkness, attacking the village periodically. Expansion is fraught with danger, monsters lurk beyond the light.


ILLUMINATING DARKNESS
Building and movement are confined to the areas lit by lanterns. Expand your base with new lanterns, but ensure you have enough wood to keep them burning.


MASTERFUL BASE-BUILDING
The location and variety of your structures are pivotal. With buildings influencing one another's productivity, strategic placement is key. Forge a stronghold that not only bolsters your forces but also withstands economic challenges.


CARD SYSTEM SUPREMACY
Start with a small deck and expand it over time. Cards aid in combat and economy. They require mana and their handling can be boosted with certain structures.


DEFENSE AGAINST THE DARK
Protect your buildings to prevent a cascade of enemy attacks. Dimmed lanterns and destroyed structures attract monsters.


EXPLORE RICH BIOMES
Venture into diverse biomes teeming with unique resources. A variety of foods enhances your villagers' health and enables special feasts. Utilize these valuable resources for advanced units, buildings, and upgrades. Let your discoveries shape your strategic path.


BEWARE OF NIGHTMARE ESSENCE
Darkness terrifies your villagers, causing them to accumulate nightmare essence. When this pool fills, you must drain it, but at the cost of receiving a random curse. These curses present unique challenges. Utilize tools and strategies to slow the essence's accumulation.

MAINTAIN VILLAGER WELLBEING
The health and morale of your villagers are crucial. Properly managed, they can provide benefits; if neglected, they can lead to penalties.

LEGISLATE WISELY
Your villagers will propose laws for you to sign. Each law comes with its pros and cons. Consider each decision carefully to strike the best balance for your settlement.

ENGAGE WITH ANCIENT SPIRITS
Mysterious ancient spirits will occasionally visit. Fulfill their quests for valuable rewards or risk incurring their displeasure and wrath.

THE DARKNESS HAS EARS
Combat creates noise, and too much of it draws the attention of lurking monsters from the shadows. Striking a balance between your army's stealth and power is essential for survival.

EVER-CHANGING CHALLENGES
Experience a game that's different every time. Roguelite mechanics introduce randomized environments, unpredictable curses, varied laws, and unforeseen spirit encounters. Combined with the card draws, each playthrough offers a unique challenge against the shadows.
