About LanternKeep
Build a defense along a moonlit shrine path and keep the yokai from reaching the shrine. Choose between the Lantern, Ofuda, Bell, and Kagami towers, each with a distinct range and role. Adapt to armored, flying, splitting, and regenerating enemies by changing your placement and targeting priority. Call the next wave early for a larger reward, or take the time to prepare. Your ward can turn the tide once per wave. Each UTC day brings one deterministic Daily Omamori rule: yokai speed, enemy HP, kill gold, ward damage, or lantern damage changes. Hold all 15 waves for the daily reward; leak nothing to earn a perfect-clear record that can be reported to Game Center. Survive the story, then continue into endless defense to chase a higher record. Five maps offer one-route and forked layouts. An interactive tutorial teaches placement, wave starts, upgrades, and the ward; a checkpoint is saved after every cleared wave so you can resume. Read the yokai and tower codex, then choose a specialization branch after bringing a tower to 2/3 damage and rate. Calm Japanese-inspired audio, haptic feedback, and focused controls make each short session easy to start. Features: - Four tower types and four targeting modes - Armored, flying, splitting, and regenerating yokai - Risk-and-reward early wave calling - One full-field ward per wave - A 15-wave campaign plus endless mode - Daily Omamori: UTC rotation, five rules, clear rewards, and perfect clears - Game Center leaderboards for daily/endless waves plus six achievements - Five maps, a yokai/tower codex, interactive tutorial, and wave checkpoints - Two specialization branches for each tower after 2/3 upgrades - Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and English - Local save data; no account required Optional in-app purchases: - Saisen: a consumable item that grants in-game gold for a defense - Omamori: a non-consumable item that grants starting-life and starting-gold bonuses Payments are processed by Apple through the App Store. Consumables cannot be restored. The non-consumable Omamori can be checked with Restore Purchases. Prices are shown by the App Store. https://lantern-keep.pages.dev/privacy/
What’s new
Version 1.3 · Updated October 2, 2026
This update further improves landscape touch play. Tower placement previews now sit above your finger, snap to cell centers, and resist small boundary wobbles. A light guide connects your finger to the snapped cell, blocked positions show an × plus a message, and upgrade buttons now show the exact current-to-next stat change. The Wave button now combines the next enemy preview with early-call rewards, while the speed control shows both the current and next speed. At 3x speed, low life, heavy enemy pressure, or when Boss/Nue enemies approach the goal, key response controls become easier to spot without automatically pausing, slowing down, or casting Ward for you. Map selection, first-wave setup, pause, defeat, and victory flows were also streamlined. The four-step tutorial, VoiceOver labels, high-contrast support, Reduced Motion, keyboard focus, 44pt touch targets, and compact landscape layouts continue to be refined, with duplicate notices and excessive highlighting removed. Daily Omamori, Game Center, five maps, Codex, checkpoints, tower specializations, and Endless mode remain supported, together with the iOS WebView startup/error and frame-scheduler stability fixes.
