✦ A Little Ink. A Lot of Trouble. ✦

What if the drawings in your sketchbook suddenly came to life?

Welcome to Sketchward, a cozy, hand-drawn lane-defense strategy game set inside a forgotten sketchbook.

Something has gone terribly wrong. Runaway ink is spreading across the pages, turning innocent doodles into mischievous enemies.

But the sketches are fighting back!

Gather your Allies. Collect Ink. Protect the Page Seal.
Every page is a new adventure.

✦ PLAY THE FREE DEMO

Your adventure begins in Chapter 1: Greenfield.

Explore the first four stages, discover your first Allies, and learn how to protect the sketchbook from spreading ink.

What's Inside?

  • 4 Playable Stages — Experience Greenfield 1-1 through 1-4.
  • Adorable Hand-Drawn Allies — Meet Pencil Archer, Candlekin, Cardboard Knight, and Frost Crayon.
  • Collection & Workshop — Discover Allies and get a taste of their upgrades.

✦ NOT YOUR ORDINARY DEFENSE GAME

Catch the Ink!

Ink splashes appear unexpectedly across the battlefield. Click them before they disappear.

Every drop counts when your page is under attack!

Build Your Little Army

Each Ally brings something special to the page. Some attack, some defend, and others help your team grow stronger.

Where you place them matters!

Something Is Being Drawn...

Enemies don't simply appear. Strange scribbles gather, dark ink spreads, and mysterious creatures take shape right before your eyes.

Can you protect the Page Seal before the ink takes over?


✦ THE NEXT PAGE AWAITS...

This is only the beginning of Sketchward.

More pages, new Allies, strange enemies, and unexpected challenges are planned for the full game.

"The next page is still being drawn..."
