Monster hordes attack. Your heroes fight back -- automatically. And when your tower falls, rebuilding makes it permanently stronger. An idle tower defense with zero forced ads, no gacha, and a single one-time purchase. WHO IT'S FOR - You like games that keep progressing while you're away - You love tower defense but not frantic micromanagement - You enjoy watching numbers inflate to absurd sizes - You avoid games stuffed with gacha and forced ads HOW IT WORKS 1. Deploy your heroes (5 classes: Warrior, Archer, Mage, Ninja, Healer) 2. They automatically fight the hordes marching in from the right 3. Spend gold to upgrade heroes and the gate, and push into deeper waves THE FALL IS WHERE IT BEGINS: REBUILD Your gate will eventually fall -- and that's the good part. Rebuilding earns Foundation Stones. Spend them on a 28-node Foundation tree for permanent boosts to damage, gold, and offline time. Every collapse makes the next tower stronger. That's the core loop. YOUR TOWER FIGHTS WHILE YOU'RE AWAY Heroes keep defending while the app is closed (2 hours free, extendable via Foundations). Come back and Touri the tower spirit reports your earnings. Watch an optional ad to double them -- entirely up to you. WHAT'S INSIDE - 5 hero classes and 19 skills (up to 3 equipped at once) - Endless wave battles with powerful recurring bosses - A 28-node permanent Foundation upgrade tree - Daily Raid challenge (once per day) - Game Center leaderboards: best wave, rebuilds, raid damage - Pixel-art heroes and monsters HIGHLIGHTS - No sign-up -- play the moment it downloads - Portrait mode, one-handed play - Zero forced ads (ads are optional, only to double rewards) - No gacha. A single one-time PRO purchase, nothing else PRO (ONE-TIME PURCHASE) - Offline defense cap: 2 hours -> 24 hours - Offline earnings always doubled (no ads needed) - Deploy 5 heroes at once instead of 3 - 3 Daily Raid attempts per day - Unlock PRO-only Foundation nodes (auto-rebuild and more) Build your tower. Watch it fall. Rise stronger.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 海猫亭Lite at none against Pixel Hero Defense's 1. 海猫亭Lite also leads on ads (none vs shown) and device support (3 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
