Wielders of the Essence is built around split second decisions and short game sessions where “just one more run” is an easy decision. It’s a game that somehow lands right between oddly meditative and stressfully intense.

Become a powerful Wielder drawing magical strength from your troops. Gather weapons, discover spells and gain skills as you battle through chaos. Hordes of enemies are closing in, and every wave will test your skills.

Your first runs won’t last long, and that’s exactly how it’s meant to be. Each failure lets you hone your skills and unlock more parts of the game. Learn, adjust and try again. In Wielders of the Essence we want frustration and flow to co-exist side by side.

Experiment with countless combinations of abilities and upgrades. Destroy everything from lowly pesky rats to gigantic bosses. Can you survive the entire level and reap the rewards?

• Earn XP and level up your skills and spells

• Survive the waves and defeat the final boss

• Gather Weapons and upgrade your magical essence

• Meta-progression: Unlock more skills, levels, abilities, spells and Wielders

• Rally your forces and fight with a band of loyal minions, each with their own abilities
