Jianghu: Sword & Zither

Darkness descends upon Mount Jade Mist as three evil factions, led by the infamous Wei Chengzhi, seek the destruction of Xuanyin Sect. Defend your home against their assault, and let your melody shape the fate of Jianghu.

Jianghu: Sword & Zither is a wuxia touch-combat roguelite game where your instrument is your weapon. Draw 7 strings across 4 lanes of battle — tap, swipe, and hold in rhythm to unleash burst strikes, wave slashes, shields, and resonance blasts against relentless waves of enemies.

Feel the music. Command the battlefield.
Every gesture triggers synthesized guqin notes using authentic plucked-string acoustics. The game sounds like you're actually playing.

Two elite disciples. Two fighting styles.
• 云岚 (Yún Lán) — Swift and elusive. Wind-pushing slashes send enemies flying. Built for speed.
• 寒渊 (Hán Yuān) — Slow and devastating. Ice bursts freeze enemies solid. Built to endure.

Enemies that demand strategy
Standard disciples, armored guardians, darting assassins, ranged archers, and poison mist-casters — each requires a different response. Every 10 waves, a named sect boss descends.

Grow stronger between runs
Earn EXP, level up, unlock assists, and spend cultivation points to challenge legendary bosses directly in Boss Challenge Mode.
