The World is Snow and Steel
In the world of Bulkhead, you take control of a hulking, armor-clad Soldier. For reasons unknown, his sole purpose is to protect the Girl with which he travels. The Soldier and the Girl are inseparable, but this world is cruel. Along their travels, the Girl falls into a trap. Unable to free her, the Soldier watches helplessly as a transmission beacon shoots into the dark sky. It turns out the pair were running from something.
And now you’re about to find out what.
Protect the Girl at all costs in this gritty third-person tower-defense game:
- Build hulking towers to keep enemies at bay
- Collect resources from foes
- Use your frost cannon to stop enemies in their tracks
Printable Models
