Thronefall

Building and crafting

A minimalist kingdom builder and defense game: you expand your small realm by day and fight off waves of enemies as a hero by night. Its clean low-poly look and simple rules make it approachable yet tactically tricky.

Dungeon Defenders

Vast, open spaces

A blend of tower defense and action RPG where you build defenses and fight alongside them as enemy waves storm your crystal. Its strengths are loot grinding and four-player co-op.

Orcs Must Die!

Pure single-player experience

Third-person tower defense where you lay traps in fortress corridors and join the fight with crossbow and spells as orc hordes get flung, sliced and burned in slapstick chain reactions. A cocky war mage hero keeps the tone gleefully comedic.

Kingdom Rush

Pure single-player experience

A charming fantasy tower defense game where you protect your kingdom with towers, spells and heroes against orcs, trolls and monsters. Tower placement and upgrade choices create crisp tactical decisions.

Deathtrap

Building and crafting

Deathtrap blends tower defense with action RPG: you fight directly while placing traps to hold off monster hordes at gothic strongholds. It is set in the Van Helsing universe.

Smelter

Building and crafting

Smelter blends real-time strategy with side-scrolling platforming in the spirit of 16-bit classics. You expand Smelter's fortifications to hold off waves of enemies, then dive into fast, punchy action sections as Eve.

Kingdom Rush Frontiers

Pure single-player experience

A charming tower defense game where you place and upgrade towers and deploy heroes to stop waves of exotic enemies. New tower types, heroes and playful levels keep the tactical choices fresh.
