Survive an adventure alongside Ao.
Sea Warden is a co-op survival game set on the back of Ao, a giant sea turtle journeying across a shattered world. Build your home on Ao's back, travel between islands, gather resources, craft equipment, and defend your living base from the dangers that emerge after dark.
Work together to explore forgotten lands, uncover lost knowledge, and help restore a world that has fallen apart.
A LIVING ISLAND
Ao isn't just your transport, he's your home. Build your settlement directly on his shell and carry it with you wherever your journey leads. Gather resources, expand your base, and prepare for the dangers ahead. Ao will need food, rest, and protection as you travel between islands, and when night falls you'll need to defend him from the creatures that emerge from the darkness.
SURVIVE!
Explore islands, fish in open waters, and build up your settlement as you gather the resources needed for the journey ahead. When night falls, hostile creatures emerge from the darkness, testing your defenses and your resolve.
THE JOURNEY
Journey across a shattered world filled with forgotten ruins, stranded souls, and ancient spirits. Guided by Kiro and aided by unlikely allies, you will help stranded souls find their way home. Each discovery brings you one step closer to restoring what was lost.
