In this whimsical tower defense game, inspired by the chaotic charm of Howl’s Moving Castle, you’ll protect Tizard the Wizard's mysterious wizard’s tower from waves of eager adventurers. During the day, the battle unfolds on its own, based on the traps, spells, and obstacles you’ve set the night before. At night, you’ll spend hard-earned gold to rebuild, outsmart, and prepare for the next wave. Can your cobbled-together defenses hold?
Deep in the cosmic wilderness, an eccentric wizard named Tizard lives alone in a towering structure held together by magic, gears, and stubbornness. Every day, adventurers arrive, drawn by rumors of treasure and power hidden within. It’s up to you, the wizard’s unseen hand, to protect the tower from their advances.
Night brings silence and strategy. Between attacks, you’ll plan your defenses: place deadly traps, erect strange barriers, and brew risky magical consumables in the hopes that the tower will survive another day.
🌞Day and Night Cycle🌚
Defend by day, prepare by night. Watch as your defenses play out automatically based on your evening schemes.
⚔️3 Enemy Types⚔️
The Samurai: A fast melee enemy that runs straight in and hits hard. Attacks close-up in all directions.
The Elf: A ranged attacker that stays at a distance and deals big damage. Squishy but deadly if ignored.
The Orc: A slow, heavy unit that takes forever to go down. Hits from close range, but doesn't hurt toooooooo much.
