Hisn Al-Sahra

The dunes are endless, and so are the raiders. You hold the last fortress of the sands — Hisn Al-Sahra. Man the walls, rain arrows on every foe, and rise stronger run after run. A bite-sized tower-defense roguelite — quick runs, deep long-term progression, wrapped in hand-drawn pixel art. ⚔️ Features Defend the fortress — your keep auto-fires at raiders; ring it with watchtowers (archer, cannon, frost, oil, ballista) and tune damage, crit, range and rate live on the in-battle upgrade dock. The Majlis star-chart — spend Skill Points across three constellations — Al-Jabbar (the War Council), Al-Judeyy (the Fortress), and Suhail (the Caravan) — to permanently grow your power and light keystone abilities. Respec anytime. Blessings — every run, choose sacred pacts (instant-kill strikes, elemental arrows, lifesteal, chain lightning…) that stack into wild builds. Relics & chests — earn wooden, silver and golden chests (drop rates laid bare), collect relics across four rarities, and forge loadouts you can save as presets. Elites & bosses — elite raiders carry modifiers (shields, menders, splitters, the swift); each chapter's boss enrages and summons reinforcements as it falls. Mark a target to focus your volley, and chain combos — Shatter the chilled, Detonate the burning. 10 biome chapters — from the Green Oasis to the Empty Quarter, each with its own hazard: sandstorms, blistering heat, rockfalls. Ascend a conquered land to a harder tier for everlasting power. Pick-up-and-play — 1× / 2× / 3× game speed, optional Auto, and quick runs you can start anytime. 🎮 How to play Tap NEW RUN to defend a chapter (50 waves). During a run, spend gold on the upgrade dock and claim a Blessing at each milestone. Between runs, spend Skill Points in the Majlis — every new wave you push past your best earns more. Push as far as you can, then beat your record to keep growing stronger. 🛠️ Early access This is an early build (v0.9.3), actively in development — the whole interface just got a hand-drawn pixel-art pass (menu, star chart, vault, battle HUD and all).
