Emberrun: Daily Survival

Every day, one short story. Every choice, a cost.

Ember is a daily survival roguelike told in text. Each day brings a single new story, the same for every player — a shipwreck, a storm-battered lighthouse, a long night in the mountains. Read the situation, swipe or tap to choose, and try to reach dawn alive.

HOW IT PLAYS
- Swipe left or right, Reigns-style — or tap to choose. Your call, your consequences.
- Balance four resources: Warmth, Food, Health, Hope. Let any one hit zero and the night takes you.
- The world remembers. Turn someone away and they may never return; your choices echo into endings you never saw coming.
- A few lives, a few checkpoints. Die and you slip back to the last fire to try again — but not forever.

A DAILY RITUAL
One story a day, shared by everyone. No endless feed. No timers bleeding you for coins. Just a few quiet minutes where every decision has weight, because you only get today's run. Miss it, and tomorrow brings a brand new one.

SHARE YOUR NIGHT
Made it, or didn't? Share a spoiler-free card of your run — an emoji trail of the choices you made and how it ended. Compare with friends without giving the story away.

BUILT TO FEEL LIKE
A small warm light in deep cold dark. Hushed, intimate, a little precarious. You're not using an app — you're guarding the last fire against the night.
