The Ember Guardian is a post-apocalyptic roguelike strategy game where you carry the last embers of a dying world through the darkness. Explore ruined environments with your loyal hound, gather resources, recruit workers, and expand your camp before night falls. When creatures descend on the light, defend the fire personally using upgradable firearms, abilities, traps, and prepared defenses. Each expedition feeds into permanent progression at your hub, allowing you to unlock new weapons, skills, structures, and abilities for your dog before facing the darkness again.
