A casual and accessible tower defense game with a lighthearted wild west theme, hand-crafted visuals, and a pinch of humor.

What players say

Players praise the western atmosphere and solid tower defense gameplay, but say the early access version offers only six maps for now. Some note the controls feel touchy, while others enjoy the perk reset system and hidden easter eggs that add replayability.
