Tower Defense
How to play
Gameplay
Tower defense. Enemies advance toward your base in waves along a fixed path and you place towers on the ground beside it to stop them. Each tower type trades off range, fire rate and damage profile differently, and gold is limited, so before every wave you have to judge which type that wave demands — leaning on a single tower usually gets punished by the wave designed to counter it.
Controls
Pick a tower type and click open ground to build it; clicking an existing tower upgrades it or sells it back for part of the cost. Start a wave to send the enemies and speed it up as needed. Losing all base health fails the level, clearing every wave completes it.
FAQ
How do the waves get harder?
Each wave adds enemies with 8 more HP and 2 more units than the last (wave 1 is 7 enemies at 26 HP), while your gold and tower stats stay fixed, so defense gets tighter every wave.
What happens when an enemy reaches the end of the path?
You lose one of your 10 lives and that enemy disappears. At zero lives the game ends; Restart clears your towers and resets gold, waves and score to the beginning.
