Each rising tide brings a new expedition to defend the crossing. Build a party of up to four heroes and choose your route across three stages and 27 nodes, from battles to rest stops and trading posts. Your defenses carry over between fights, so every delay matters.
Roll, then decide
Roll for action points each turn. Choose who acts, which skill to use, and who to target. Balance protecting your party, finishing enemies, and saving points for later.
Build around your skills
Two matching skills of the same rank merge automatically, up to rank three. With limited skill slots, decide whether to broaden your options or collect duplicates to create the centerpiece of your run.
Hold the line
Position your team in two rows to control range and counterattacks. Your defenses do not fully recover after every battle. Choose your path and fight efficiently to survive all three tides. Winning runs unlock ten ascending enemy strength levels.
