How to play

Spirits travel from the portal to the sanctuary. They arrive with only a spark of light – your towers heal them along the way. A spirit that reaches the sanctuary with less than half of its light costs you a life.

Walls send the spirits on detours so your towers can heal them for longer. Between waves there is time to plan: build, upgrade, place walls.

Deck and unlocks

Before every run you choose your deck of 4 towers; walls are always with you. You unlock new towers by playing, never with money. When two towers fit together, they form a resonance with an extra effect.

Seasons

In a season everyone plays the same waves with the same season rule, such as Frost Week or Fog Week. A season currently lasts one week; with version 4 it will be two weeks. Your best run of the season counts for the season leaderboard.

Leaderboards

Season: your best run of the current season. All-time: your best run ever. Healed: all the light you healed in season runs.

Every entry shows the deck. Runs from the new app version also show the board at the start of the last wave.

LeaderboardScoring

Fair: no pay-to-win

Towers, unlocks, lives and gold come only from playing. You can only buy comfort and cosmetics, for example “No ads”, a faster game speed or the supporter pack. Speed changes no points: same waves, same scoring.

Every leaderboard run starts with a ticket from the server, and top runs are replayed.
