About the Game

This is a dynamic tactical character defense game in the spirit of modern tower defense but set in an urban setting around a popular blogger. Your goal is to prevent a "cancellation": build a perimeter defense, combine different types of guards and fortifications to hold back the influx of marginalized crowds, provocateurs, and aggressive fans. Barricades slow the advance, archers deal precise damage, and bombs at the right moment create a wave of panic, giving you an advantage.


The game offers:

Positioning mechanics and combo effects between defender types.

Round checkpoints and risk-reward: every mistake is costly. Progressive difficulty: new enemies, enhanced waves, weather-based or evening rounds.

Upgrade system: upgrade your guards, fortifications, and explosive power.


The final goal is simple yet challenging: survive 10 waves. Success depends on tactics, precise timing, and the ability to quickly adapt to new threats.
