Guard the Mast
A pixel defense game: hold back what leaks from the Tower at the settlement's Mast. Buy gear from the shop each round and mount it on the Mast.
What is it?
Things leaking down from the Tower's upper floors swarm the Mast from every side. Spend gold in the shop, which changes every round, and the gear you buy is mounted on the Mast and fires on its own. Survive the set number of rounds and the Gatekeeper rises at the end; defeat it to clear the zone.
- 1Press Start on the title screen and pick a zone. At first only Entrance and Relay Room are open
- 2Buy from one of the 8 shop slots (or keys 1–8), and reroll when nothing fits. Rerolls are free until your first purchase
- 3Collect the same type or element to open stronger sets
- 4Full Broadcast clears every foe on screen once per run. Save it for the Gatekeeper or spend it in a crisis — that's the choice
Counters and sets
- Normal beats Medium, Pierce beats Light, Magic beats Heavy, Siege beats Fortified for 2×. Chaos has no counter and rolls its damage
- The line above the round tells you which armor is coming. A foe's health bar color is its armor
- Only three big sets take effect at once, in the order you opened them
- Catch the wandering cart to pick one prize for this run
What carries over
- Winning a zone opens the next one; honors give Mast skins and insignia
- Win the Archive Floor to open the Settlement Chronicle and spend points on permanent upgrades. Refunds are always free
- Win the Relay Mast to open the Upper Archive, where record fragments decode relics you can equip
