Ark of Charon is a new type of game that combines colony simulation and tower defense, where players embark on a journey to guide a giant, beast-like sapling of a World Tree to its nursery. Players take on the role of the tree’s caretaker, controlling familiars and turning the tree into a fortified mobile fortress as they progress on their journey.

Construct Buildings

Stockpiling items, manufacturing ammunition, and building defenses are essential to protect the sapling.
As space atop the sapling is limited, you must construct efficiently in preparation for the journey.

Check for what items are obtainable in the next area and carefully choose your destination.

Unlock Technology
