The Ember Guardian

The Ember Guardian is about a lone Guardian carrying the last embers of a dying world. With a loyal hound, weapons and your wits, you travel through darkness, reignite lost flames and push back the horrors within. Your camp is the fire’s last line of defense: if it goes out, you die.

Prepare your camp

Craft ammunition, refine resources and expand the camp’s defenses. Assign workers to hunt, scavenge or guard, unlock merchants to buy skills and traps, and use the watchtower to learn about approaching waves.

Defend the fire

At night, hordes of creatures drawn to the fire attack from all sides. Hold them back with unique weapons, modified guns, perks and powerful abilities. Each night tests the choices you made while preparing.

Explore the lands

Scavenge for resources across a variety of environments. Choose your weapons and bring enough ammunition for each expedition, and return to camp before nightfall or risk having to rebuild from the ashes.

Unlock lasting upgrades

Between levels, return to your hub to permanently unlock weapons, active and passive skills, and structures. You can also teach abilities to your dog. Each battle offers a lesson, and defeats contribute to your progress.
