About this game

On Halloween night, three teenagers head out to enjoy the early hours in costume, unaware that they've chosen the worst possible place to go. While crossing an old, abandoned square during a strange storm, an occult ritual awakens a portal between dimensions—dragging the three into a dark world dominated by the chaos of Halloween.

Trapped in a dimension where monstrous creatures constantly emerge, they discover that their costumes have come to life, transforming into real powers. The witch controls destructive magic, the hunter wields cursed weapons, and the shadowy creature unleashes supernatural abilities capable of facing entire hordes of monsters.

But escape won't be easy.

To find the portal back home, they must survive increasingly dangerous waves of enemies, explore cursed regions, and defeat entities that control that macabre world. The further they advance, the stronger they become—and the more terrifying the dimension that tries to imprison them forever becomes.

During each match, new skills, weapons, and magical powers can be unlocked, allowing for devastating combinations and unique playstyles. Every choice completely alters the run, encouraging different strategies and builds.

Arcane Waves combines intense action, fast-paced progression, and frantic survival in an experience inspired by modern roguelikes, with quick matches, gigantic hordes, and visually impactful combat.
