A line of colorful orbs spirals in toward your tower. Aim your cannon, match colors and pop them all before they reach it! DEFEND THE TOWER Orbs roll along a winding road straight to your tower. Every orb that gets through breaks a tower segment. Lose them all and the level is over. Hit an orb with a shot of its own color for double damage and big combos. 6 CANNONS, ONE TAP TO SWITCH • Bronze Cannon: your trusty start • Rapid Cannon: a hail of fast shots • Rainbow Cannon: matches any color • Shotgun Cannon: a fan of pellets • Ice Cannon: slows the whole line • Mortar: shells that arc over and burst Buy cannons once, keep them forever, upgrade their fire rate. BUILD A STRONGER TOWER Add segments, toughen the base, raise a shield and unleash a shockwave that pushes orbs back. Freeze the line or repair the tower when things get tight. 8 MAGIC WORLDS Mushroom fields, mountains, forest, arctic, cyberspace, snow village, outer space and underwater, each with its own look. Stone orbs, bombs and ice orbs keep every level fresh, and a boss waits at the end of each world.
