Your army

Three towers. Three buildings. Five units.

  • Towers

    Bolt towers hit walkers and flyers. Mortars splash crowds. Gale mills slow everything near them. Upgrade each one twice.

  • Buildings

    The Lodge trains Wardens and Rangers. The Hangar trains Darts and Barges. A Sun catcher adds sunstone every second.

  • Units

    Skiffs gather. Wardens hold the line with shield and spear. Rangers shoot walkers and flyers. Darts are fast jets. Barges bomb from above.

  • The foe

    Mites, spitters, brutes and haulers on foot, drones and gunships in the air, and a dreadnought at the end.

Endless

The waves never stop.

Win mission 1 and Endless opens. Fell the spire and it rises stronger, the sky changes as you go, and your best wave stays on the board.
