Unique Sword

Don't swing the sword. Build it.

Unique Sword is a pixel-art wuxia strategy game. Forge every flying sword yourself, draw the Sword Intent it flies, then line up your swords against the monsters pouring in from across the battlefield. Blade Pilgrimage is a whole other way to play: steer the sword case yourself, level up as monsters close in from every side, and build a different set of swords every run.

Another journey: Blade Pilgrimage

Shoulder the sword case and take another road. In Blade Pilgrimage, a roguelite mode of its own, you steer the sword case yourself while the swords around it fire on their own. Cut down the monsters pouring in from every side, scoop up their orbs, and every level-up deals you a choice of cards — a blade, a part or a Cultivation boost. Take the same piece again and it gains a star; parts evolve with every star they gain, so every run builds a different arsenal.

Read the bosses' red warnings — most of their big moves first mark the ground in red, showing where they land and the path they take, so pick your moment and slip clear of slams, charges and blasts of sword qi.

Every chapter is a new adventure — each has its own lands and bosses and its own mix of monsters, and clearing it on Normal opens an even deadlier Hard mode, where a Calamity Lord awaits.

Grow stronger run after run — win or lose, bring back Sword Souls to learn Talents and unlock more blades, parts and sword skills in the Sword Pavilion.

Build every sword yourself

All kinds of blades and parts — rotate parts to any angle and layer them above or below; anything goes, as long as it connects to the blade.

Your build, your way — damage, crit, fire rate and sharpness all change with the parts you fit, and sets, schools and a wide range of synergies turn the same blade into completely different swords.

Craft and refine — gather all sorts of materials to craft gear, then refine it all the way from Common to Immortal grade.

Draw your Sword Intent

Sketch each sword's Sword Intent freehand, with lines or with curves, and whenever it lands a hit, a phantom sword may fly the exact path you drew. Loop to pull monsters together, add a sharp corner for extra crit, draw a long straight stretch for more sharpness — or simply draw whatever you like.

Deploy and defend

Send your lineup into battle and the swords fire at the monsters on their own; cast skills such as Myriad Swords mid-fight. When several swords trigger their Sword Intent in quick succession, a Sword Formation is summoned. Fire, ice, lightning and poison set off elemental reactions, and every stage ends with a boss.

Anything can be a sword

A rubber chicken, a salted fish, a baguette, a leek, a folding stool, a lollipop — if you can hold it, you can fly it.

A long road ahead

The campaign — travel from town to town, take on all kinds of quests and unravel the mystery of the sword case.

More challenges — beyond the campaign wait the Tower of Trials, climbed floor by floor, the Sword Tomb with new rules every week, and an Endless Mode that never stops; pick a blessing after every wave you clear, and see how far you get against players worldwide on the Endless Mode leaderboard.

Custom Formations — design your own Sword Formation with a Formation Eye, materials and a Formation Flag; its pattern, paths and material mix are all up to you.
