11 itemsAbout the Game
Defense of the Dauntless is an endless horde mode tower defense game with roguelite progression.

Build your Defenses, your Way
Let your creativity and ingenuity guide where you place your towers and walls. Anything goes!

Defend and Reinforce your Stronghold
As you defeat the hordes you'll earn reinforcements. These timely bonuses could give you some much needed gold, stun enemies, unlock new tower types, or — if you're feeling risky — reward you handsomely, for a price. The higher your level, the higher your chances of getting stroner gold and prismatic reinforcements.

Survive and Become Dauntless
The enemy forces are relentless and will stop at nothing to see your stronghold destroyed. Do you have what it takes to remain dauntless? Enemies appear in constant waves, some with unique defenses and abilities of their own, so be ever-vigilant.

Upgrade your Tower Arsenal
Research and unlock progressively more powerful towers between runs to ensure victory! As you unlock towers, new more powerful tiers will be revealed.
