In the game, you can place defense towers anywhere on the map, but how should you position them for maximum benefit? Should you place resource gathering towers first to accumulate funds, or focus on defense towers to fend off enemies and solve the immediate problem? What’s the best timing to cast spells? All of these factors need to be considered as you prepare for each wave of the beast hordes!
The placement of defense towers is based on physical rules. You can correct the position of a previously placed tower by placing a new one, and adjust your strategy anytime according to the battlefield situation.
The game features five large maps, each with a unique environment and different effects. For example, in the snowy map, players must build campfires, or buildings outside of the warm zone will freeze, reducing attack and gathering speeds. In the desert map, defense towers will heat up when placed next to each other. Once the heat reaches level 3, attack speed increases, but so does the damage taken—balancing risk and reward.
Each map has different orc enemies, such as the large wolf packs that fear fire but come in great numbers, or the long-range spear-throwing orcs, among others. Each map also has many exciting features waiting for you to discover!
The game features dozens of defense towers, each designed to counter various types of enemies. For example, mortars can attack enemies in a wide radius, mana towers can shoot laser beams, and capture towers can effectively deal damage to airborne enemies, etc.
In addition to defense towers, players can also equip spell scrolls, which can be used to unleash large amounts of damage or effects in one-time casts. For instance, Fireball can instantly eliminate orc minions, and Fog can significantly reduce the attack range of ranged enemies. There are many possible combinations, offering multiple strategies for completing the game!
In addition to strategically placing defense towers and casting spells at the right time, the game also requires players to attack various neutral buildings while facing waves of orcs from all directions. Some neutral buildings can provide positive buffs that can turn the tide of battle, such as granting spell scrolls. Others can effectively prevent enemy advances, like destroying a portal to stop the final wave of orcs from summoning additional enemies.
Each level in the game offers three difficulty options for players to choose from, along with challenge modes to test your skills. Whether you prefer a relaxing experience or a more brain-teasing challenge, the choice is yours! The game also features entertaining and unique levels, such as the Blizzard level where all orcs freeze periodically, and the Quicksand mode where defense towers slowly shift outward. With many creatively designed levels, there's always something new and fun to discover!
