Every path is a decision.
Emberward combines maze construction, tower placement, and the changing choices of a roguelite run.
Before a wave, tetromino-style block cards let you shape the route enemies will take. Towers defend the path you create. As a run develops, towers, relics, runes, talents, maps, and characters give you more to consider.
Block placement influences routing and where your defenses can stand.
Put different tower tools to work against each incoming wave.
Relics, runes, and other choices change the decisions ahead.
