What is Defend the Tower about?
simply put, Defend the tower is a roguelike board game with tower defense elements.
Enemies come at you in five waves from different angles to destroy the main building – the tower.
To stop them you have heroes, towers, traps, barricades and magic spells.
heroes
There are three basic types of heroes: the warrior, the villain, and the sorceress. Each of them has three more variations with unique abilities.
| warrior | villain | sorceress |
|---|---|---|
| samurai | corsair | banshee |
| barbarian | ranger | Black witch |
| Elf Commander | mercenary | Possessed Soul |
towers
This is where tower defense games come to mind when playing Defend the tower.
You have three basic towers:
- cannon tower – long range, low damage
- Arcane Tower – medium range, medium damage
- Emerald Tower – short range, high damage
From a tactical point of view, avoiding their range and damage is crucial. Each of them has two upgrades that give the towers unique properties.
traps and barricades
We will not make it easy for monsters to reach your towers. To stop them you have a few traps that can slow down your enemies or damage them. Placing them in the right place can make the difference between victory and defeat, as some of your heroes will benefit from traps, for example.
Magic
Just like towers and barricades, spells pack a punch or provide utility to your units. You are faced with a choice of damaging and potentially knocking out the enemy, or protecting your defenses.
enemies
Enemies come in waves. There are five waves of enemies in each round with a boss in the final round. Killing the boss will give you a gem that you can later use for upgrades. Your heroes don’t have to survive and their fall doesn’t mean the end of the game. They will be checked at the beginning of the next round. This means you can go all-in on the boss; However, you don’t want to lose heroes before the final wave.
The tower
Unlike MOBA games, such as League of Legends, dota 2or Hit, the tower is not just an immovable object that you must protect. In Defend the toweryou can move the tower and he also has some offensive abilities.
You can upgrade the tower. Here the game is similar to mobile base building games clash of clansand all its clones.

The fun doesn’t end here
The first campaign is just an appetizer before the main course, called the Ascension. In Ascension, the difficulty increases with each level you choose, making it more challenging. This is where the game will put your strategy and planning skills to the test.
Overall with all the upgrades, the progression system, the choices to be made and the pure game mechanics Defend the tower offers many possibilities with different outcomes to uncover. You will be faced with difficult decisions like: “Should I sacrifice the tower to prevent heroes from losing HP, or should I let the hero absorb the damage to prevent the tower from burning down?”. Defend the tower is one of those games with a steep learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll be sucked in forever.
