A roguelike tower defense game where you extend and shape the enemy path yourself. Card draws and upgrades let you build a unique defense in each run.

Thronefall

Gameplay comes before story

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.

Crystal Guardians

Tactical depth

A tower defense game with roguelike elements where you defend a world crystal from waves of enemies and equip your towers with item combinations. The map keeps expanding and hides secret powers to discover.

GemCraft: Frostborn Wrath

Tactical depth

A deep tower defense game where you craft, combine and socket gems with different abilities to hold back endless monster waves. A large campaign map, extensive skill trees and many challenge stages keep you hooked for a long time.

Wanderburg

Strong character progression

You pilot a castle on wheels, devour villages, and assemble a modular arsenal of siege weapons and arcane machinery to crush rival strongholds. A minimalist medieval roguelike built around growth and construction.

Loop Hero

Fantasy setting

Instead of controlling the hero, you shape the world around his endless loop with cards for monsters, buildings and terrain while managing his gear between auto-battles. An oddly addictive blend of roguelike, base-building and loot optimization wrapped in grim retro pixel art.

Siegebreaker

Fantasy setting

A fantasy tower defense game where you build distinctive towers, upgrade them and refine your tactics to defeat fallen gods. Details are inferred from the limited metadata available.

Ratropolis

Gameplay comes before story

You rule a rat kingdom, building up your city and defending it in real time against waves of enemies, using cards for buildings, troops and spells. The blend of deckbuilding, tower defense and roguelite makes every run feel different.
