A strategic and lighthearted tower defense game where you place and upgrade colorful towers to fend off waves of comical fantasy enemies.

What players say

Players call it a genre-defining tower defense with deep strategy from tower synergies and enemy waves. Many praise the nostalgia of its Flash origins, but some note the difficulty spikes on Veteran and a tedious late-game mechanic requiring rapid clicks on towers.
