Description

AI generated. Recruit a small crew of living constructs and hold a beacon through six rival battles. Your choices happen before combat: who to recruit, who to merge, where to stand and which rival each unit should prefer. Preview the opposing formation before sending your plan onto the field.

Six unit families bring different tools. Bulwark carries armour, Thorn reflects damage, Gale attacks from range, Wisp leaps toward a back line, Cinder bursts around a projectile impact and Mender heals injured allies. Two different deployed families sharing a crest activate Forge armour, Sky attack cadence or Grove vitality.

Manage fictional leaves across the campaign. Buy recruits, refresh the desk, combine three copies of the same rank, sell invested units or keep savings for interest. Up to eight roster members allow a bench alongside six deployed units. Formation tiles can swap occupied positions, and target preferences influence the next chosen opponent.

Watch automatic battles with real movement, homing projectiles, healing, armour and support statistics. Pause, inspect ranges, use normal or double speed, save an active battle or prepare a PNG crew record. Original procedural art and optional synthesized effects accompany a suggested starting crew and clear field instructions.

Known limitations

This is an independent solo browser auto battler with six battles per campaign and an open field. Units move directly toward targets with simple circle separation, without terrain navigation or rigid body physics. Each battle has a sixty second simulation limit; a draw costs one beacon vitality. Defeated roster units return fully restored for the next battle. Surviving round six with beacon vitality completes a campaign even when some battles are lost. Matching crests require two different deployed unit families. Target preferences choose the next target while launched projectiles retain theirs. Mender healing chooses the lowest vitality fraction ally within reach; Weak targeting uses lowest current vitality. Wisp leaps once per battle. Fictional leaves have no monetary value. Local scores, records and saved JSON are editable and unverified. There is no automatic storage, cloud backend or competitive anti cheat. Saves are limited to 1 MB. Physical touch hardware, gamepad, extended assistive technology sessions and broad device performance are unverified. AI generated disclosure appears in the game and listing.
