'When the Light Dies' is a survival game with roguelite elements set in a desolate, frozen wilderness.

Step into a murky world of shadow and obscurity as a lone survivor, fighting to keep the darkness and the horrors that lurk within at bay...

Scavenge the wastes: Search a nightmarish, procedurally generated world for precious supplies. Consume food to stay healthy and read books to calm your feverish mind.

Grow your power: Absorb the souls of the slain and unlock powerful new abilities. Pin, reroll, and stack upgrades to develop your character as you choose.

Cast forbidden dark magic: Gain eldritch knowledge and expend sanity to unleash cosmic blasts, baleful flames, and unholy healing spells.

The stars will align: Death is not the end. Look to the night sky and chart a course through strange and esoteric constellations to gain permanent stat buffs and abilities.
