About the Game

A Defense Game Where the Towers Are Yours.

In Defense of Wancotte the towers aren't predefined. You assemble them.

Slot up to four units into a single tower, combine their abilities, and create defenses that reflect your creativity.

There is no correct tower. Only the one that solves the problem in front of you.

Design, Deploy, Refit

Build a tower. Then modify it.

Units can be swapped mid-battle, letting you evolve your defense as enemy waves change. Your long range sniper platform can become a fast attacking magic damage tower at the drop of a hat. That sniper can join another tower to add to range over there. Let no Unit go to waste!

Discover Synergies

Explore 10,000+ possible tower combinations in the tower design Workshop. Stack fire effects for massive damage over time. Duplicate projectiles to multiply any other effect. Create specific hybrids that solve problems your own way.

Some towers are strong early. Some are strong against specific enemy types. Some only work because you built them that way.

Blueprints

Save, reuse, and iterate on your favorite tower designs. Name your creations and deploy them instantly. Efficiently refit an existing tower to another of your designs. Take those same designs and tweak them slightly for whatever situation you're currently facing.
