Leyline Arcanum is a strategy roguelite inspired by Chinese cultivation fantasy, blending Minesweeper-style exploration, spatial puzzles, and auto-battler combat. Uncover hidden leylines, place mystical artifacts, and link flying swords into powerful formations. Then watch your creation cut down the beasts that threaten your sanctuary!
Read the Land. Uncover Its Secrets.
Beneath the mountains and rivers lie secrets you can learn to read.
Use numerical clues, much like in Minesweeper, to pinpoint spirit roots and hidden caches. Follow the terrain to trace the leylines beneath it and claim new ground for your formations. Every treasure you unearth could give you the edge in the next battle.
Link Your Swords. Complete the Formation.
Position and rotate flying swords along the leylines, connecting each sword's tip to another blade. Close the loop to activate a sword formation and multiply the power of every sword within it. Link more swords into the formation to make it stronger.
Sometimes, turning a single sword is all it takes to bring the whole formation to life.
Master the Elements. Defend Your Sanctuary.
Beasts attack in waves. Study their elemental affinities and use the five elements to your advantage. Decide when to strengthen your sword formations and when to invest in protective wards.
Once you're ready, let battle begin. Flying swords strike in succession as your wards absorb the beasts' counterattacks. Every battle puts your layout to the test.
Each run brings new terrain and leylines, with fresh clues to follow and new ways to arrange your artifacts.
Make the land your board. Let your formations decide the battle.
Wishlist Leyline Arcanum and prepare to uncover the power beneath the land!
