Dreadlight

Hold Back the Dark

Your lantern keeps the dark at bay. Step beyond its glow for scrap, build an arsenal of up to six weapons, and survive an arena that grows more dangerous as Dread rises.

Build a Monstrous Arsenal

Equip up to six weapons and combine their strengths into a build that can survive the horde. Orbiting blades, traps, projectiles, close-range tools, and cursed effects create wildly different ways to fight.

The Arena Remembers

High Dread opens ritual scars in the arena. These wounds persist between waves and make the battlefield harder to cross. Spend scrap to seal dangerous scars, or keep it for weapons and relics in the Black Market.

Make Every Wave Count

Collect scrap, visit the Black Market, combine weapons, buy relics, and prepare for escalating horrors. Survive all 15 waves and kill the final boss, or let the dark claim another run.
