About the Game

Golemworks is an experimental fusion of tower defense and factory builder. You must assemble a factory that generates an army of automatons. These automatons automatically fight and defend your golem foundry from waves of encroaching shadows.

Molds activate on a cooldown, and generate a golem core - the 'recipe' for an automaton.

Catalysts are the production infrastructure. They can add levels, add elemental attributes, or otherwise alter a core

Survival will hinge on your ability to optimize the strength of your golem army. Good luck.
