WARDEN: Sonaria Horror Escape
Sonar Studios' co-op horror escape set in the Creatures of Sonaria universe — squad up with up to 8 players, survive trials while the Corrupted hunt you, solve puzzles and see how deep a run can go.
Halloween is live now. The Halloween event runs October 30 – November 4 with limited-time morphs, palettes and stickers — and the platform-wide Hollow quest (Wings of Corrupted Jerry UGC + badge) is completable inside WARDEN.
How a run works
- 1Enter the door
Something corrupted Sonaria — survivors stepped through a strange door after Rebus, the puzzle-solver. Every run goes deeper into what lies beyond.
- 2Survive the Trials
Each trial is a new area — run, hide and finish tasks while corrupted creatures patrol and hunt your squad.
- 3Escape the bosses
Scary boss creatures cap key stages — escape them to progress, or lose the run trying.
- 4Grow your delvers
Unlock new Delvers (playable creatures), collect cards and plushies to get stronger, and push leaderboards that reset monthly.
Delver roles — pick to the squad
Before a run you pick among role classes; a balanced team clears trials faster than three hunters.
| Role | Job | Signature ability |
|---|---|---|
| Lure | Draws the Corrupted away so the team can work | Ice Yelp — alerts Corrupted in range and drops a slowing icy pile |
| Support | Keeps the squad fast and the Corrupted slow | Deep Breath — doubles your speed briefly and slows nearby Corrupted |
| Hunter | Tears through infections and holds the team together | Morale Boost — buffs nearby allies' damage, stamina regen and stealth |
Survival tips
Stealth over speed
Corrupted react to noise and movement — crouch-walking past a patrol beats sprinting and dragging it onto the team.
Destroy infections first
Corrupted infection nodes gate progression in event trials — clear them as a group, not solo.
Stick near, not on top
Co-op lets you split tasks and rescue each other — but piling into one corridor means one scare wipes the squad.
Monthly boards reset
Depth records reset each month — early in a season is the cheapest time to place on the leaderboard.
