Vigilant: Burn & Bloom, is a resource-managing endless survival, out now in soft launch on iOS

Vigilant: Burn & Bloom, a captivating endless survival game, is currently in soft launch on iOS. Players assume the role of the Sentinel, an ecosystem guardian battling hordes of fiery elemental beings.

This unique title challenges the typical "good vs. evil" elemental conflict. Instead of outright destruction, the Sentinel must maintain a delicate balance between fire and water, preventing the alien world from succumbing to flames. The Sentinel, awakened by a meteorite impact, manages the ecosystem and controls these fiery creatures, destroying only those that become overwhelmingly powerful.

Between battles, players retreat to their underground base (a "Batcave," as the developers call it) to enhance their powers and abilities.

A Nuanced Approach to Elemental Conflict

The game cleverly avoids the simplistic "good versus evil" trope often seen in elemental conflicts. Instead, it presents a more realistic and nuanced perspective on the interplay of nature's forces.

While the gameplay involves the satisfying action of blasting fire elementals with water orbs, the strategic element of managing rather than simply eliminating the fire beings sets it apart. This approach adds depth and complexity, making Vigilant: Burn & Bloom more than just a straightforward shooter.

A global iOS launch is slated for December, with an Android release planned for Q1 2025. Prepare for a thrilling battle of elemental proportions! For fans of roguelike games, check out our review of the recently released Dungeon Clawer.
