The Loop
One descent. Four acts.
Every run is a tight, self-contained arc of preparation, risk and reckoning. The tension lives in the climb home.
- I
Hone in the Hold
Lanternhold is sanctuary. Fell, mine and fish without fear. Every level and tool you earn is yours forever.
- II
Pass the Threshold
Below the great stair lies the Hollow. Everything you gather there is relic, marked and visible to every hunter.
- III
Hold what you take
Richer veins lie deeper, and so do sharper blades. Fall, and your relics belong to whoever felled you.
- IV
Seal it in the Vault
Climb back, kneel at the Vault for five heartbeats, and it pays. Heavier hauls earn a far greater share.
Five-minute runs
Each descent is a complete story. Perfect for a break.
Instant start
Open the page and you are standing in the Hold.
Greed is the enemy
One more vein, or the climb home? Every choice is yours.
Lasting mastery
Skills and gear persist, so every run sharpens the next.
The Depths
Four depths. One way up.
The further you descend, the heavier the relic, and the brighter the target on your back.
Merchants, forges, fishing wells and the great Vault. No blade can be drawn here. Train as long as you like.
- Pine & ash
- Tin ore
- Cave trout
The Vault
Greater hauls, greater share.
Your cut of the Vault grows faster than the haul itself, up to a quarter of everything inside for a full 5,000 relic claim. Coins spent in the Hold flow back in.
