A brisk, strategic tower defense where you manage heroes and runes to fend off waves of enemies and bosses.

What players say
Players are split on this Tower Defense game. Many praise its unique barracks-and-hero system and nostalgic value as a Flash game, but a loud camp points out a terrible UI ported from mobile with no keyboard shortcuts, erratic difficulty spikes that force grinding or buying consumables, and balance issues where melee units feel useless.
