Arknights is a tactical tower-defense RPG from Hypergryph that casts you as the “Doctor”, leading the med-and-defence group Rhodes Island in a post-disaster world. Set in the dystopian planet Terra where the mineral Originium brings both power and corruption, the game combines grid-based strategic battles, base building, and an unfolding sci-fi story of survival and hope.
