Defend the sacred Wardlight beacon from waves of darkness. Auto-fire weapons, move to dodge, collect gems, upgrade, and choose cards to evolve.

About the Game

In Wardlight, players defend a sacred beacon of light against endless waves of dark creatures. The beacon is the last hope; if its light fades, darkness wins. Players circle the beacon while weapons auto-fire, and the only control is movement: weaving, dodging, and choosing where to stand. Defeated enemies drop gems used to level up. After each level-up, players select upgrade cards to stack passives and evolve weapons into new forms. Two characters are available: the Warden and the Ranger, each with unique abilities. As nights progress, enemies grow stronger and the beacon's energy depletes, requiring players to orbit and stoke it between waves. The game blends action survival with light RPG elements, testing positioning and decision-making.

How to Play

Core gameplay revolves around moving around the beacon while weapons auto-attack. Players control only movement, dodging enemies and positioning strategically. Killing enemies yields gems for leveling up. Upon leveling, choose one of three upgrade cards to enhance damage, attack speed, movement speed, or special effects. Weapons evolve into new forms, e.g., from single shot to spread or piercing. Between waves, players must approach the beacon to refuel it, or its light dims. The game features multiple nights with increasing difficulty; the goal is to survive as long as possible.
