About

Relive the arcade glory days in Ember Island, a relentless quarter burner where every mistake costs blood and time. Fight through 12 deadly zones as a Knight, Mage, or Rogue. Chase high scores for lives, hit the checkpoints, and use unlimited continues to earn your mastery. Play the demo now.

THE JOB IS SIMPLE: HUNT THE CORRUPTION. KEEP THE TREASURE.

You’re a mercenary on a deadline. The shadowy contracts pay well, and the loot on Ember Island is yours to keep: if you can survive the trip. Every gem and gold coin you snag is a step toward the ultimate bounty, but the island doesn’t give up its riches without a fight. Mastery is the only way out.

ARCADE DNA. NO SHORTCUTS.

Ember Island is a precision gauntlet that demands momentum. No saves. No safety nets. Just you against 12 deadly zones.

The Quarter-Burner Loop: Start with 3 lives. Every 25,000 points earns extra chances and keeps the run alive.
Momentum is Life: A 3-minute timer governs every level. If you aren't moving forward, you're falling behind.
The Checkpoint Grind: Unlimited continues keep you in the fight, but a Game Over sends you back to the start of the level and wipes your score.
One Hero, One Run: Lock in your class at the start. Once the descent begins, there’s no turning back.

CHOOSE YOUR CHAMPION

Three mercenaries. Three ways to bleed.
