How it feels
A low-stakes idle game that runs quietly in the background, letting you casually upgrade a single tower and watch it fend off enemies while you do other things.

What players say
Players treat Desktop Defender as a low-focus companion for work or other games, best on a second monitor. A few mention save-wipes across multiple titles by this dev, and one reviewer finds it gets boring despite the cheap price.
