Call on allies, near and far
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

THE BEACONS ARE LIT
A call sent. A fellowship gathered.
In a world of vast distances and gathering shadows, your light is the only word that matters. One spark to pierce the silence. One flame to summon your kin. Beacon transforms your presence into a signal fire, bridging the miles between you and those you trust most.
Ignite the Signal – Kindle your flame with a single touch, casting your summons across the horizon.
The Answered Call – Watch the distance for the return fires of your allies as they rise to meet your light.
The Ever-Watchful Eye – A living map of the wild. Gaze upon the active beacons of your fellowship in real-time.
Burning Trails – Follow the glowing path through the dark. No one wanders alone when the beacons are burning.
Swift As Fire – Send instant, fire-swift responses to let your companions know you are on the move.
