Overview

About this game

Something's coming down the path. Cone-shaped machines. Relentless, endless, and heading straight for your base. Your job: build the defense that stops them.

Classic tower defense, with depth

Enemies follow paths. You place towers freely. Every tower type serves a different purpose; raw damage, crowd control, support, area denial. Knowing when to use what is half the game.

Every tower has 3 upgrade paths, each with 5 tiers.

But you can only invest in 2 paths per tower.

That means every tower becomes a decision: do you go all-in on damage, build a long-range zone controller, or make something weird and flexible?

Earn research points from missions, unlock new towers and upgrades. The further you get, the wilder your builds become.
