Wardenmark

Wardenmark is a real-time survivors roguelite set in the shared world of Orenvalt. You lead one of five Concord Wardens on short arena missions along the contested border-marks, defending the peace agreed to by the four crowns. Your spells cast automatically, so you move, read the battlefield and shape your character through upgrades.

Draft your build

Defeat swarms and collect the experience they drop to level up. Each level offers new auto-casting spells and passive upgrades: choose a wide build for coverage in every direction, or focus your picks on mastering one spell. Each Warden begins with a different signature ability: the Soldier’s cleave, the Archer’s volley, the Mage’s homing bolt, the Trickster’s chaining spark or the Engineer’s auto-turret.

Campaign expeditions

Missions form six-node expeditions. Your build and health carry over from one node to the next, and surviving the expedition brings you to a faction warlord. Clearing campaign stages unlocks new Wardens and lets you alter later runs with stage modifiers.

Biomes and challenges

The game includes twelve biomes, from greenwood to stormpeak, each with its own faction swarm and telegraphed hazards. Threats are telegraphed, and contact damage is paced. Each faction’s tour ends with a distinct warlord. After the campaign, the endless Dread tail escalates without an endpoint, with a boss every fifth node.

There are 61 achievements, including milestones for your first kill, reaching level 60 and clearing the whole campaign with every Warden.
