An ancient civilization's stronghold is under attack by alien raiders. As its defender, you face enemy waves across a campaign of 40 levels.
Build towers in available areas of each map, then upgrade them to handle different enemies. Tower placement, choosing defenses for incoming waves, and managing resources shape each battle.
Between levels, spend earned resources on upgrades for towers, the base, and tactical abilities such as barriers, minefields, and a ray attack. You can reset and redistribute upgrades, while brief story panels provide a light, humorous backdrop to the campaign.
Players who enjoy classic tower defense often appreciate planning tower placement and adapting defenses to enemy waves, with some finding the campaign's later challenges especially engaging. Reviews also praise the colorful art, humorous story panels, and atmospheric music. The appeal is not universal: some players find the limited tower selection and upgrade grinding make later stages repetitive.
