Choose a character and starting weapon, then face waves of creatures in a top-down survival run. You move, aim, and fire directly as you try to last through the night.
Defeated enemies drop experience for choosing upgrades, summons, and special abilities. Combine them with your weapon’s evolving traits to shape a build, and defeat bosses to earn powerful Tomes.
Between runs, spend Souls on Runes that strengthen future attempts, and unlock additional characters and weapons. Increasing Darkness levels add difficulty modifiers, giving you tougher runs to tackle.
