The lucid arena, the Refinery, and the long climb through the night.
Swipe to look closer.
You can't say exactly where the relic came from. Found, inherited, handed to you without explanation. You only know you kept it close, and one night you slept beside it. That was enough for something to anchor onto you in the dark.
Deep in the quiet part of your mind that only opens when you sleep, a Machine runs, drawing on your own dreams to shape the enemies that want you gone. You can't touch any of it until you go lucid, until you wake up inside the dream. Then you can see the Machine at work, stand against what it sends, and do the one thing it never could: refine.
Everything you break leaves something behind, and you built a Refinery to catch it. Claim what you refine and the power is yours, to carry deeper into the night. Leave it, and the Machine takes it instead, and comes back worse. Every step, you decide who the dream belongs to. Then you wake, keep a little of what you earned, and go back down. It's always waiting.
Whatever power you leave in the dream, the Machine takes for itself.
Endless waves of Siphons, auto-fought in a lucid arena, with a greater Siphon every fifth wave.
Build around Attack, Defense, or Harvesting, and tune both session and permanent power.
Refine Dust into graded Current across seven elements, each climbing its own five-grade ladder.
Research Blueprints, focus forms into your build, and keep them fueled with continuous Current.
Your own refinement raises the enemy's ceiling. Outbuild the Machine, or feed it.
Research and refining advance while you're away, so every return starts stronger.
Water, fire, earth and air flow from the first night. Shadow, arcane and void reveal themselves deeper in the dream.

VoidDrop into the arena and fight endless waves of Siphons in real time. Spend Coins on session power to snowball the run.
When the run ends, unspent Coins fade into Tokens. Bank them into permanent power for every night that follows.
Turn collected Dust into Current, and spend Stones on Research to raise your ceiling, even while you sleep.
Nightfall is coming to iOS and Android. Here's where it's headed.
