Keep the light burning against the sea monsters

Lighthouse Mage is an idle defence game on a tiny palm island in a dark sea. Crabs and other sea monsters crawl in from every side, and the lighthouse fires at them by itself. Gold from each kill buys upgrades on three tabs: Attack for damage, speed and critical hits, Defense for health, regeneration, armour and thorns, and Magic for extra gold and a stronger beacon beam. A boss arrives every few waves.

How to play Lighthouse Mage: Idle Defense

  1. Press Play; the lighthouse starts shooting on its own.
  2. Spend gold on upgrade cards in the Attack, Defense and Magic tabs.
  3. Keep the island's health bar from emptying as the waves grow.
  4. Prepare for the boss counted down at the top of the screen.

Tips to play better

  • Damage is the cheapest early upgrade, and the tutorial suggests it first.
  • Regeneration refills the island over time, so add it once hits start landing.
  • Magic upgrades raise the gold earned per kill and per wave.
