HOW TO PLAY

🎯

The goal

Hold the beach against endless waves. Rescue islanders — they fight for you. Survive the night.

🕹️

Move & shoot

Left stick / WASD to move. Right stick / mouse to aim — you fire automatically. Dash to escape.

✦

Level up

Kills drop XP. Fill the bar to pick a power-up card. Stack one theme to unlock a build bonus.

🧠

Sanity

At night the dark drains your sanity and the horde swells. Lanterns and dawn restore you.

💰

Get stronger

Gold buys permanent Armoury upgrades and unlocks new heroes between runs.

☠

Bosses

Every 5th wave a named boss arrives — and enrages at half health. Watch the telegraphs.
