A little witch, a sea of sweets and endless waves
Candlebound Coven is a survive-the-waves roguelite with a sweet tooth. A white-haired witch girl with cat ears walks a dark checkerboard floor scattered with giant teapots, strawberry cakes, biscuits and candles, while little creatures close in. She attacks on her own; your job is to move her. Each level-up offers a choice of midnight rites, such as ghost flames that hunt for you or blessings that harden her against hits.
How to play Candlebound Coven
- Move the witch with W A S D or the arrow keys; she attacks automatically.
- Stay away from the crowd while her attacks thin it out.
- When the level-up card appears, pick one of three rites or blessings.
- Survive until the wave timer reaches the boss.

Tips to play better
- Candle Wisp adds ghost flames that hunt enemies on their own, a strong first pick.
- Sturdy Habit cuts the damage of every hit if you keep getting caught.
- Circle the edges of the swarm rather than cutting through its middle.
