A methodical city builder where careful resource management and defensive planning feel equally vital against a demonic threat.

What players say
Players praise Fortifend as a surprisingly polished tower defense with city-building elements, often calling it underrated. They note the game runs well even on older PCs and provides a steady challenge. A common frustration is enemy pathing, with enemies sometimes taking unclear routes or spawning in unexpected places. Some players wish for more building variety and a map editor.
