Starlight: Defence Command

Take the role of a Defence Commander and protect UPF assets remotely through the use of your Adaptable Nano Tablet in this immersive, PC focused Tower Defence Game. It's designed to be a tough but rewarding experience with a character progression system and the ability to configure towers to your own liking.


  • Play through a storied campaign spanning 15 assignments that go beyond a typical tower defence level.
  • Defend against thousands of enemies made up of 16 different enemy types during the course of an assignment.



  • Enemies adapt their resistances, deploy special abilities and fight back against your towers.
  • Amend targeting priorities on the fly for all your towers or at an individual level.



  • Master the use of the economy system and its powerful abilities.
  • Unique Fog of War system that not only affects what you see as the Commander but determines what intel you can receive from your towers.
  • Each assignment map can be played as a custom game through the 'Simulator' where you choose the settings - including endless and how many 'Units' you start with, to add hours of replayability.
  • Compete for high scores across each campaign and simulator level.



  • Customise your tower blueprints in billions of possible combinations. If you want a rapid firing laser tower that slows enemies or a missile tower that boosts your economy, you can.
  • Manage your career and gain access to perks as your mastery progresses.
