## What is Thirty Spartans?

Thirty brave warriors. One mountain pass. An army that never stops coming.

Lead thirty Spartans in real time, fortify a narrow pass in ancient Greece and hold it wave after wave. Every dawn the enemy comes back stronger. How many days can you last?

BUILD THE PASS
Plant stakes, raise a tower where skirmishers hurl javelins, and build barracks that recruit warriors in the middle of a fight. Add tents for a bigger squad, then upgrade everything you own.

COMMAND THE PHALANX
Your Spartans move as one squad and you lead them yourself. Switch formation on the fly:
• Free formation — chase, flank, finish off stragglers.
• Phalanx — unbreakable from the front, fragile from the rear.
• Shield wall — stops incoming arrows cold.

KNOW YOUR ENEMY
Slaves come in numbers. Immortals hold their formation. War elephants crush your stakes. Alchemists throw bombs, engineers plant stakes in your path, and archers punish anyone caught without a shield. Every wave asks a different question.

AUTHENTIC ANCIENT GEAR
Corinthian helmets, the hoplon and the scutum, the doru, the xiphos and the sarissa. Every piece changes the fight — blocking arrows, lethal counterattacks, or walking straight through a barricade.

GROW BETWEEN BATTLES
Every victory pays. Spend it on the camp, on Spartan skills and on new defences. The longer you hold, the more helmets, shields, spears and armour you unlock.

MODES
• Base defense — hold the pass day after day and grow your camp.
• Endless — survive ten days, then face waves that never stop.
• Campaign map — conquer the regions of ancient Greece (in development).

MADE FOR YOUR PHONE
• Plays offline. No internet needed for a battle.
• Two joystick modes, or simple tap to move.
• 40+ languages and graphics settings for any device.
• Made by one developer. Your reviews decide what comes next.

Come back with your shield — or on it.
