Isle of Arrows

Puzzles and brain teasers

A roguelike tower defense with a board game feel: you place tiles, buildings and roads to grow your island into a fortress against waves of invaders. Each run rewards clever placement and planning.

Sleep Attack

Puzzles and brain teasers

A tower defense game with a twist: instead of just placing towers, you shape the battlefield itself and decide the routes enemies take. This turns it into a puzzly, strategic planning challenge.

Dungeon Warfare

Gameplay comes before story

You play a dungeon lord setting traps and obstacles to stop greedy adventurers. A demanding tower defense game where clever trap combinations and upgrades decide success.

Tower Factory

Puzzles and brain teasers

Tower Factory blends tower defense with factory automation: you build conveyor belts and production chains to supply your towers, hold off monster waves and destroy the enemy tower. Roguelite elements keep each run different.

Mob Factory

Gameplay comes before story

A blend of factory automation and tower defense: you turn loot from defeated monsters into turrets and factories that run and defend an ever-growing dungeon while you sit safely in your tower.

Hexguardian

Gameplay comes before story

A roguelite tower defense where you shape the terrain yourself by laying roads and rivers, building towers and economy structures, and learning spells. Hundreds of talents allow for many build combinations.

Roll Player

Puzzles and brain teasers

A digital adaptation of the board game where you draft and place dice to shape your hero's attributes, gear, skills and alignment. Character building itself becomes a puzzly optimization game rather than a combat adventure.

Gameplay comes before story

A small tower-defense game where you defend a fortress against pirate fleets by building towers, collecting crystals and upgrading spells. It focuses on quick, accessible defensive planning.

Prime World: Defenders

Linear, curated structure

A tower defense game where towers, spells and traps are collectible, upgradable cards. You lead exiled treasure hunters defending an ancient empire's capital against hordes of mutants.
