Tower Defense
Build towers beside the road and stop every wave before it reaches your base.
How to use: Choose a tower, tap an empty green square to build it, then press Start wave. Tap a tower to upgrade or sell it.
How to play Tower Defense
In Tower Defense, enemies walk along a winding road toward your base and you stop them by building towers on the open ground around it. Each enemy that reaches the end costs you a life, and you lose when all 20 lives are gone.
You begin with some gold. Pick a tower from the bar and tap an empty square to build it, then press Start wave. The Archer Post is cheap and fast. The Boulder Cannon is slow but hits every enemy in a small area, which is ideal for crowds. The Frost Tower deals little damage but slows enemies, giving your other towers more time to shoot. Tap a tower to see its range, upgrade it up to level 3, or sell it back for 70 percent of what you paid.
Defeating enemies earns gold, and clearing a wave pays a bonus. Later waves bring tougher enemies: slow, heavy brutes with lots of health and fast runners that are hard to hit. Place towers at corners of the road, where enemies stay in range for longer, and mix at least one Frost Tower with your damage dealers.
The speed button doubles or triples the game for impatient moments. Your furthest wave is saved as your best score on this device.
Frequently asked questions
Can I build on the road?
No. Towers can only go on the green squares beside the road. Tap a square to place the selected tower.
Which tower is best?
A mix works best. Archers for steady damage, cannons for groups and frost towers to slow enemies down inside everyone’s range.
Does the game end?
There is no final wave. Enemies get stronger every round, and the game ends when you run out of lives. Try to beat your best wave.
