Starfall Keep is a cozy spin on the classic tower defense with tons to play. Build your towers, hold the keep, and battle through 100 handcrafted levels packed with monsters, bosses, relics, and upgrades. โ€ข FOUR TOWERS, REAL CHOICES โ€” Bolt slows, Pyre burns, Venom poisons, Arc strikes hard. Land two elements on one foe to PRIME it for bonus damage. โ€ข THE LONG DESCENT โ€” 70+ battlefields of rising difficulty across spring, desert, winter, and volcanic biomes. Gold and Keep Integrity carry between battles; lose the keep and the run is over. โ€ข DRAFT RELICS โ€” choose a run-warping relic after every victory and build around it. โ€ข THE ARMORY โ€” bank permanent upgrades between runs. Every descent makes the next one stronger. โ€ข AN ENDLESS HORDE โ€” runners, flyers, armored brutes, self-healing beasts, motherships, and the Starfall Dragon waiting at the bottom. โ€ข MINT GOLD โ€” raise the treasury tower and bank a dividend every wave. Slow them. Burn them. Hold the line โ€” and drive the dark back down.
