About the Game

Features
  • It's-a-mazing! - FrankenStorm sees a return to classic maze-based tower defence strategy. Additionally, each map has unique terrain features like ocean currents or molten lava which you can take advantage of!
  • Seasonal Leaderboards - Each new season comes with new content and fresh leaderboards for each map. Pit yourself against the best in the business and set a survival record!
  • Campaign Mode - Frankenstorm boasts an extensive campaign tree with over a hundred unique levels. Completing levels will unlock new technologies and other lucrative rewards.
  • Infinite Replayability - No two games of Frankenstorm are the same. Carefully craft your strategy around your rewards and the map terrain.



Choose Your Playstyle

 FrankenStorm features a huge variety of different strategies for you to experiment with. Not only do you choose your own defences and upgrades, but you also select how enemies evolve as well! A Berserking upgrade makes enemies take more damage, but they also cling to life for a few more seconds on the brink of death. Each decision is twice as impactful and gives players have an unprecedented level of control over their strategy.

Build Your Defences

 Seemingly endless waves of angry peasants are threatening your precious experiments! Construct a labyrinthine maze to befuddle and ensnare your foes. Fortify your defences using dozens of unique towers and traps. How long can you survive their relentless assault?

Choose Your Rewards

 Each time you successfully defend an attack, you will be rewarded with a choice of additional towers, traps or buffs. Choose wisely to maximise the effectiveness of your maze!

Collect Permanent Upgrades

 At the end of every game, you will have an opportunity to add some rewards to your permanent collection which you can use to power-up future games. Fill your collection with a dazzling array of gadgets, gizmos and contraptions!
