How it feels

A relaxed, puzzle-like tower defense where you build mazes and upgrade gems in a calm, family-friendly fantasy setting.

What players say

Players call it a small remake of a classic gem tower defense like the one from Warcraft 3. There is only one map and one mode, and air enemies ignore maze placement, which forces a different build strategy. The difficulty ramps hard in endless mode, and some say the hp curve makes round 100 impossible. Players also note some minor bugs around gem combinations in the interface.
