Description

🌊 Wave Survivor

Bind the altar. Defend the Monolith. Survive the horde — or build a kingdom around it.

Forge Hordes Relics Languages License NEW

The Eternal Void — End arena at night

Wave Survivor turns Minecraft into a wave-defense game you can play solo or with friends. Bind a horde to the Runic Altar, protect the Monolith, and survive wave after wave of monsters and bosses — or switch to Kingdom mode and build a fortified realm against enemy Gates. Everything is editable in game, no file editing required.

🔮 New in 1.5.0 — Relics, Renaissance & Kingdom Tools: relic sets and a Forge with 12 legendary relics, a Heritage tree and Renaissance ranks, plus a Repair Workshop, a kingdom map, a golden compass, scout reports and saved games for Kingdom mode.

⚔️ Classic Hordes

  • 🌊 Waves that grow stronger and scale with players and difficulty
  • 💀 Bosses, special waves and horde mutators
  • 🔥 Breaches to close before the horde gets stronger
  • 🛒 Merchants, 🎰 mystery chests and 🙏 blessings between waves
  • 🔒 Horde progression: unlock the hordes one after another

Breaches pour Endermen into the arena

Between waves: Boss Reliquary, mystery chests and merchants

🏰 Kingdom Mode

Your altar becomes a kingdom. Enemy Gates open in a ring around the Monolith, and you alternate between the Calm — gather, build, complete objectives — and the Assault.

🧱 Build your defenses

  • 6 buildings with 3 levels and 3 specializations each: Archer Tower, Mage Tower, Shrine, Barracks, Gleaner Tower and the new Repair Workshop
  • Walls, gates and traps — and solid foundations, or your towers collapse
  • A defense sheet on every building: stats, upgrades, specializations, repair, dismantle

⚔ Hold the line

  • Siege units: Rams, Sappers, Climbers and Standard-bearers
  • Soldiers with orders, and a Commander who leads them with a War Cry
  • A shared treasury (coins, wood, stone, iron, essence) and player roles

🗺 Scout & plan

  • Calm objectives: Convoy, Champion, Buried Treasure and Purification
  • A kingdom map with 3 zoom levels and a golden Kingdom Compass
  • A scout report before each Assault and an Assault report after it
  • Kingdom games are saved and resumed after a server restart

🌪 Chaos & Resources

Fantasy trees and ore deposits erupt mid-fight or during the Calm: harvest them before the timer runs out. Catalysts, breaches and other chaos events keep every game different.

🗿 The Runic Altar

Offer the right ingredients to seal a horde to the altar, pick your challenge, and choose blessings as the waves go by.
