About this game

Swamp Keeper is a Korean-style bow action arena shooter inspired by one-shot, one-kill gameplay.

You are the "Swamp Keeper," defender of the sacred swamp, armed with only a bow to repel invading enemies.

Master the art of archery, defeat waves of foes, and take down their commander.

Ho’s forces have invaded the sacred swamp, targeting its precious resources!

Wielding iron and fire, the enemy has already reached the heart of the swamp shrine.

As the sworn guardian of these wetlands, it’s your duty to drive them out.

With support from your allies, traverse the battlefield and restore peace.

Pull, aim, release — experience the high-stakes tension of one-shot, one-kill charging bow action.

Craft arrows that suit your style, select your skills, and prepare for combat.

Enjoy charming Korean-style anthropomorphic characters and beautifully rendered backgrounds.
