Dawnhold

Dawnhold is a top-down action base-defense game set in a world overrun by the Hollowborn. You protect the Sunstone, the last source of light, by gathering resources, building defenses and fighting enemy waves. To win each mission, you must also leave your base, attack a Hollowborn stronghold and defeat its powerful bosses.

Build and defend

Each mission starts fresh. You balance gathering, construction, combat and upgrades as you prepare for repeated attacks and decide when to push toward the enemy stronghold. Walls and towers protect the Sunstone, while you fight directly as a hero using class-based abilities.

Mission types

Standard missions combine defending the Sunstone, expanding your base and advancing toward the enemy stronghold. Arena missions focus on direct battles against waves of Hollowborn enemies.

Classes and progression

You can choose from three playable classes, each with distinct strengths and playstyles. Campaign progress earns currencies that you use to unlock and enhance abilities, walls, towers and other upgrades. Missions can be replayed with different strategies and approaches.
