About the Game

Welcome to IDUN, a new breed of defense RTS where explosive single-player action meets a gripping story campaign.

Explore several diverse modes and complete fist-pumping missions, including defending the collection base, escorting nuclear vehicles, and protecting mining carts. Execute a strategic plan of defense by deploying destructive tanks, blade-spinning fans, flesh-melting turrets, and sturdy barriers to block vicious waves of extraterrestrial vermin.
