## What is Aetherwood?

Aetherwood Frontier Defense is an original tower-defense game set in a glowing alien rainforest. Command seven living guardian towers, protect precious Aether Sap, and hold the frontier against squads, vehicles, elites, and boss invasions.

Build on raised platforms, read each winding route, upgrade your strongest guardians, and collect rewards from campaign and endless battles. Every map combines a visible path, designed tower slots, strange rainforest relics, and pressure that grows from wave to wave.

Features:

- Seven original guardian towers with distinct combat roles.
- Ten enemy variants and five boss types.
- Campaign and endless defense progression.
- Aether Sap rewards, weekly leaderboard hooks, and offline cache collection.
- Portrait-first mobile controls for quick tower placement and upgrades.

The frontier is alive. Hold the path.
