• Defense of Kyrath is being retired from sale - 17 August 2026

  Frosty Wren Studios is closing up shop, and Defense of Kyrath will be retired from the Steam store shortly. If you already own the game, nothing changes. It stays in your library permanently — you can download, install, and play it exactly as before. It's fully offline, so there are no servers going away and nothing stops working. Thank you to everyone who played, wishlisted, streamed it, or sent a note. Fifteen people put real hours into a game I built solo, and that turned out to be worth more than the sales were. — Jason, Frosty Wren Studios

• ⚔ The Folly — A Roguelike Ascent Awaits - 24 May 2026

  Good people of Kyrath — The campaign will test thee. The Folly will break thee. The Folly is a roguelike ascent mode — twenty tiers of escalating combat, each a short, intense battle. Survive one tier, advance to the next. Fall, and begin again. How It Works Each Folly is a 25-node path. Twenty battle nodes. Five boon choice nodes where thou must shape thy strategy for the tiers ahead. Escalating edicts — challenge modifiers stack at milestone tiers. What begins as a fair fight becomes a war of attrition against the rules themselves. Boon choices — at each milestone, choose one of three permanent bonuses for the remainder of thy ascent. Economy? Raw damage? Desperate gambles? Earned titles — progress from Novice to Legend (or Conscript to Unyielding, depending on which Folly thou art foolish enough to attempt). Two Themed Follies The Crucible A crucible of steel and sorcery. All manner…

This is the first post leading up to launch, and a good place to start with what the game actually is, who's building it, and what to expect here between now and June. What Is Defense of Kyrath?Defense of Kyrath is a lighthearted fantasy strategic defense game set in a kingdom that has endured at the edge of the known world for a thousand years. The horde was once a children's tale — shadows at the tree-line, distant thunder. Now it's real, and it marches on Kyrath from every direction of the compass.Position thy wardens. Marshal thy archers. Hold the line.The game leans into the tower defense tradition — wardens on a path, waves of enemies, upgrades, hard choices under pressure — then adds depth on top: a resistance and weakness system across five damage types, a 29-talent progression tree, edict…
