Design your own Sigil to appear in a future game update as part of the launch celebrations
London, UK (16/11/2026) – Ten Image Publishing and developer myradann today launched Night of the Idle Horde, a side-scrolling incremental horror game about creating an unstoppable zombie army and eating the world, one brain at a time. The full game is available now for £4.59 / $4.99 / €5.19 here.
Starting with a single, lowly shambler, Night of the Idle Horde is a side-scrolling incremental auto-battler inspired by classic B-movie horrors that invites players to recruit, upgrade and manage brain-eating corpses, in full screen or Desktop Mode.
Across 5 Regions, each with 5 Zones, unlock and upgrade 6 zombie types each with their own attack styles and synergies, and organise your formation on the fly. Play tactically; rush enemy defences with fast moving Runners, shield allies behind powerful Brutes and use Spitters to deliver ranged attacks from afar, or summon a mass of cheap Shamblers and try to overrun humanity’s last lines of defence.
Raise your Infection Meter to deploy Sigils, powerful short-term abilities that can tip the balance in your favour. Automate your resource harvesting with rats, crows and chickens to help collect brains and flesh to spend on upgrades for the horde. Spread across varied Regions, each with their own Game Changer modifiers, and hunt down the remaining survivors.
As part of the launch, players are invited to submit concepts for their very own Sigil, dark magic that can temporarily boost abilities, summon allies and more. Join the game’s discord, submit an idea and the best will be chosen and implemented into the game, with the winner featuring in the game’s credits in a future update.
Night of the Idle Horde is available now for £4.59 / $4.99 / €5.19.
