About the Game

Defense of Egypt: Cleopatra Mission takes you to a land where the desert wind carries the sound of war. Under the burning sun and the gaze of the gods, every stone tower and bronze weapon becomes a shield for your people.

Across sixty missions you will fight on shifting dunes, riverbanks, and sacred temples. Sixteen enemy types march against you: infantry charging the gates, war machines grinding forward, raiders from the skies and ships rising from the Nile.

You have six kinds of towers to build and upgrade, each with its own strength. Five special mechanisms can twist their power even further, turning a simple defense into a deadly machine. And when the horde presses too close, you can intervene yourself: call down lightning, hurl grenades, or scatter deadly traps to break the assault.

Every battle is a choice: do you play carefully, testing every path, or strike boldly and risk it all? The world of Ancient Egypt gives familiar tower defense mechanics a vivid tone—sun, sand, stone, and steel.
