Ride out with your champion. The walls will not hold the night on their own. Duskhold is kingdom defense on hex maps where you lead from the front. By day you raise walls, towers, barracks and farms on the plots each map gives you. When night falls, raiders march down the roads and warships land raiding parties on your coast, and your champion rides out to meet them: dash in, use four abilities, hold a gate, and pull back before a wall breaks. WHAT IS IN IT - 43 maps across 6 chapters, each with its own layout - 6 champions, each with a mount, a shared dash and four abilities of their own - 26 buildings with four tiers each; four of them split into a choice of two upgrade paths - 108 enemy types, 9 of them bosses - 38 research nodes, 111 pieces of equipment, 32 boons to pick during a run and 12 relics - Up to four players in one realm: host it, hand out the six-letter code and hold the walls together - Allies: add a friend by their code, see when they are hosting, and join with one tap - Play in English, Turkish, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French, Italian, Indonesian, Russian, Japanese, Korean or Simplified Chinese ALLIES AND ACCOUNTS No account is ever required. Play, co-op by code and the shop all work signed out. If you want your allies to find you, pick a player name; if you want to keep your allies when you change phones, Sign in with Apple links them to your Apple ID - no e-mail is asked for. Your campaign progress stays on your device. You can unlink or delete your account from the game at any time. Player names are filtered before they are saved, and every ally row carries BLOCK and REPORT. There is no chat: invites are fixed templates, never free text. Single player needs no connection. Only co-op and allies go online. CREDITS Most 3D models and animations are free CC0 packs by KayKit (Kay Lousberg), Quaternius and Kenney. All music and sound effects were generated with Stable Audio; the item, ability and research icons, portraits and banners were made with AI image tools. Credits are in Settings.
