a lighthearted tower defense game with colorful visuals, cute characters, and strategic card-based upgrades that make each run feel fresh and adaptive.

What players say

Players enjoy the mix of traditional tower defense with roguelike randomness and a humorously surreal school theme. There is only one map, but random upgrades and a controllable drone keep runs fresh. Some note that tower stats are not shown and a crash near wave 80 on endless mode bothers long runs.
