Ananke blends the tactical depth of an auto-battler with the dynamic choices of a roguelike.
Build a powerful squad and defeat the enemies that stand in your way.
The Draft: Choose units that fit your strategy each round. Combining distinct roles—tanks, DPS, and healers—is the first step to victory.
Synergies: Combine units of the same origin to unlock powerful faction bonuses. Pair a Mage and Barbarian under the 'Human' synergy for devastating attack power, or field a Crab and Turtle under the 'Water' synergy to turn the tide with relentless health regeneration.
Win battles and complete quests! Acquire powerful relics and items to forge an even stronger squad.
Relics: The core of your progression, granting powerful buffs to your entire team. Your relic choices dictate your build's direction and the flow of combat, so choose wisely!
Equipment: Gear up your core units with powerful items. Equip a magic sword to sweep enemies away with lightning strikes, or equip a shield to absorb incoming damage and hold the frontline.
Quests: Take on unique missions during your run. From simple tasks like 'Defeat 2 Enemies' to demanding challenges like 'Collect 500 Gold,' earn powerful rewards—such as relics, items, and permanent upgrades—to strengthen your build.
Every decision shapes your run. Learn from past defeats and chart your path forward.
The Map: Navigate your course through randomly generated nodes. Risk dangerous Elite battles for greater rewards, or roll the dice on unknown events that introduce entirely new scenarios.
Events: Unique encounters along your journey act as a double-edged sword. They can grant valuable blessings—or exact a heavy toll.
Strategy: From unit positioning to route planning, every decision is in your hands. Adapt, optimize, and reclaim the fallen kingdom!
