Orcs Must Die! Deathtrap

You play as a War Mage defending a rift from waves of orcs and other creatures. Choose a hero with their own weapons, abilities, and signature trap, then take on missions alone or with up to three other players. Each run sends you through a sequence of maps and enemy waves. Fight with ranged and melee attacks while placing traps and barricades to funnel enemies into kill zones. Map conditions and run modifiers can change enemies, traps, or the battlefield. After waves, choose temporary bonuses for your hero, weapons, or traps, then decide whether to press on or return to the castle hub. Between runs, spend skulls on lasting upgrades for heroes, weapons, and traps; runs can lead to fights against Orc Generals.

Defend a dimensional rift as a War Mage, mixing third-person combat and trap-built kill zones across roguelite runs solo or in co-op.
