About the Game

BUILD A BASE



Construct high towers, epic castles, cute cottages, armoured bunkers or whatever you imagined - as long as it is made of cardboard boxes. Erect a production line to gain constant supply of resources for your further expansion. The maps are randomized to give you an unique experience and challenge each playthrough.

SET TRAPS



Lure the enemies into deadly traps that will set them on fire, shock them with electricity, freeze them or blow them up, it is up to you which means of destruction you will use. Make your own defense plans and put them into practice. Try different combinations of traps to get better results.

CRAFT WEAPONS



Collect various materials - tubes, cans, wings, batteries or firecrackers and use them to craft unique weapons such as flamethrowers, freezing grenades or exploding planes. Each weapon works in a different way and has a different effect on enemies, so discover the best way to use them.

SURVIVE



The swarms of enemies will be attacking your base from all sides. Each type of enemy requires a different strategy and approach, so be prepared for anything. With each defeated wave, upgrade your base, expand your arsenal and become stronger!
