They grew every night, increasing in numbers and consuming everything in their sight.
Ruined country, scattered population, nowhere to go.
The light will give you time, delaying your inevitable fall.
Defend at night until sunrise just to prepare for another tougher night.
Dark will descends stronger until everything is consumed.

✦ AI summary
Players praise the game's exceptional artwork, sound design, and solid mechanics, but consistently highlight a significant issue: the game lacks adequate tutorial or introductory explanation, leaving new players confused about objectives and core mechanics for the first 10-30 minutes. Once players figure out what to do, they find the gameplay entertaining and engaging, though better onboarding would greatly improve the initial experience.
All it need is a little story/lore at the beginning of the game about the main character and the objective, it took me 30 minutes to understand the objective of the game... Other than that the game is perfect, the artwork is 11/10, game mechanics is 9.5/10, sound design is 10/10, and i haven't found any bugs/glitches through out my gameplay4 found this helpful
[h1] Confusion [/h1] After the initial 10 minutes of "wth am I supposed to do" its not that bad, a hint for new players [spoiler] buy arrows at the market, kill deer, sell goods at the market, harvest herbs and sell at the market. Market is by the fire, sell item by dragging from inventory to bottom of inventory. Hire Archers at archer flag, assign to a wall by interacting and then hit left or right. There are 2 chests close by in the forests [/spoiler] Quite entertaining.. Once you know what you are doing.3 found this helpful
