About this game

Inspired by Kingdom

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.
