Kraken Light
About Kraken Light: Arcade Defense Where You Are the Lighthouse
Kraken Light is an arcade defense game with a sharp central twist: you are the lighthouse. Your beam sweeps the night sea to guide ships safely through the reef and to burn back the sea monsters rising from the deep — but the light can only point one way at a time. While you hold your beam on a sea serpent, a cargo ship behind you may already be drifting toward the rocks. That constant tension between protecting and fighting is the heart of the game.
Survive until dawn across four seas, contending with fog, ghost ships, pirates, and storms. Between nights, spend the coins earned from every ship you save on lighthouse upgrades and helpers. At the end of each sea, the Kraken itself surfaces, and the only way to defeat it is to burn its glowing eye.
How to Play Kraken Light: Guide Ships and Burn Monsters Until Dawn
The goal each night is to keep the harbour safe until dawn. Point the lighthouse beam at a ship to guide it home along the golden path through the reef. Hold the beam on a sea monster until it burns and sinks back into the deep. Every ship that crashes or monster that reaches the harbour costs a heart. Survive the night before your hearts run out to win and earn up to three stars.
Coins come from every ship saved, and those coins go toward lighthouse upgrades and helpers between nights. At the end of each sea, face the Kraken by burning its glowing eye to advance.
