About the Game

Strategy meets physics, action, and co-op


Carry & place turrets anywhere
In Hexabot Stranded: Defend or Die, you control a small repair robot stranded on a hostile world. Build your defenses, survive enemy swarms, gather resources – and find a way back home.

Play solo or team up in local 2-player co-op.

Features


Defend. Upgrade. Survive.
Build defense towers and place them freely across the battlefield. Carry them to new spots, combine their effects, and keep your base alive.



Swarm-based enemy behavior
Enemies attack in tight formations and put your defenses to the test. Stay mobile – and respond fast.



Action tower defense with full control
No passive camera here: you move your bot directly, dodge attacks, block paths, and defend your base in real time.

Use your surroundings – physics is on your side
Throw objects, block enemies, use recoil – everything follows real physics. The terrain and environment become part of your strategy.



Collect resources and power up
Every wave leaves you with limited time. Grab what you can and invest in faster movement, stronger towers, better weapons, and active abilities.

Solo or co-op – your choice
Play the campaign alone or with a friend. A second player can jump in anytime for local split-screen action. Find joint strategies, divide roles, and survive together.

For players who love:

• Tower defense with direct movement and combat
• Co-op games that reward real teamwork
• Physics-driven gameplay with meaningful interaction
• A smart mix of action, strategy, and progression

TL;DR


You’re stranded. Everything wants you dead. But you’re not defenseless.
Build your base, use the world around you, level up – and fight your way back to safety.
Hexabot Stranded: Defend or Die blends classic tower defense with real-time action and physics-based gameplay, alone or coop.
