Lysward moves on to beta testing
Independent developer Snowcastle Games has announced the closed beta for their upcoming game Lysward, a single-player survival adventure. Set in a world where light never fades and the desert stretches infinitely, Lysward challenges players to explore, craft, and survive using the mystical power of a magic known as Amri. Players step into the role of Kiran, a fugitive experiment who awakens in the blistering sands with no memory beyond a single name—Orren. As Kiran, players must uncover the truth of their origins while mastering the deadly rhythms of Zenit, a region bathed in perpetual daylight. Here, every gust of wind, every resource, and every flicker of shade can mean the difference between life and death.
Survival in Lysward goes beyond just managing Kiran’s hunger and thirst: it demands strategy, adaptability, and a bond with a loyal companion. Players must scavenge scarce materials, craft essential gear, and manage an intricate, space-based inventory system to endure Umbra’s merciless heat. The world’s light-infused resource, Amri, serves as both a blessing and a curse, granting magical abilities that help Kiran endure while also hinting at the mysterious power that shaped the planet itself. With its immersive storytelling, stunning desert landscapes, and emphasis on exploration and survival, Lysward aims to deliver a haunting journey of self-discovery and resilience. Players eager to experience the heat of Zenit firsthand can wishlist Lysward now on Steam.
