About the Game

So you're stuck in a middle of a desert with a single flask of water... how do you escape? Do you stare at the sun long enough for it to stare at you back? Well, that might not be the worst idea.

Survive the desert!

As you wander around the desert and lose water in your body - don't forget to stay hydrated! Drink the flask to replenish your hydration.

Create and manage your drip armies!

Pour some water out of your flask to create drips of water - your loyal companions that you can command to help you on your way.

Fight for control of strategic structures!

Order your drips to moisturize and take control of various desert structures - use them to multiply your drips, train them in combat or upgrade their abilities.
But be wary! Local fauna is very protective of their structures - you'll need an army to attack and defend against them.

Seek a way out of the desert.

Find a path that leads to the end.

Features:

  • drip army combat

  • turn-based strategic hydration management

  • procedurally generated desert

  • endless sand

  • sun, that always keeps you company!
