About This Game

While visiting a grave, Mai is suddenly attacked by monsters emerging from a rift. 
Defend your town using coins and gravestones against the monster onslaught!

This game is a Broughlike inspired by the works of Michael Brough. In other words, it can be described as a turn-based puzzle roguelike. It also takes inspiration from Levels2 (flow.inc) and Seven Scrolls (Venbrux).  

In this game, you defeat enemies emerging from dimensional rifts using coins and gravestones, merge dropped coins to strengthen them, or offer them to altars to create barriers and empower gravestones — all in pursuit of higher scores by defeating even stronger enemies.

Unlike most typical Broughlike games, this one features a persistent 9×10 board that remains unchanged from start to finish. As a result, not only powerful coins, but also unnecessary objects left behind early on will continue to occupy space until the end. This makes planning your board layout strategically a key aspect of gameplay.

It also features both local and global leaderboards, aiming for a pure, score-driven experience with a tough and uncompromising design that rewards thoughtful play and perseverance.
