About

Five Elements Tower Defense

Features
Read full description

Five Elements Tower Defense is built around one idea: every tower and every enemy belongs to an element, and the matchup decides the fight. METAL CUTS WOOD. WOOD DRAINS EARTH. Metal beats Wood, Wood beats Earth, Earth beats Water, Water beats Fire, Fire beats Metal. Attack the element you counter and you deal 1.5x damage. Attack the element that counters you and you drop to 0.7x. Elementless enemies ignore the cycle entirely โ€” those you beat with position and timing instead. Each element brings its own effect from tier 1: Metal shreds armor, Wood poisons straight through it, Water freezes and slows, Fire burns, Earth stuns and empowers the towers around it. BUILD, UPGRADE, SPECIALIZE Eight tower types, three tiers each. At max tier every tower forks into one of two specializations โ€” a permanent choice you cannot undo, so read the wave ahead before you commit. Selling refunds 60% of everything you put into that tower. KNOW WHAT IS COMING Twelve enemy types and six bosses. Armored enemies shrug off raw damage. Regenerators heal back what you cannot finish. Flyers ignore your maze and cross in a straight line. Splitters become two enemies when they die. Bosses shield themselves, summon escorts, or disable every tower in a radius, and enraged enemies cancel your elemental advantage outright. The next-wave preview shows exactly what is coming, and warns you when nothing you own can shoot at flyers. COMMAND THE FIELD YOURSELF Send a controllable hero anywhere on the map to body-block a lane. Your hero levels up during the run and revives at the rally point after falling. Recruit soldiers to hold a chokepoint. Call in an artillery strike on the densest cluster, or an Iron Curtain that drops every enemy on the field to a third of their speed. 23 MAPS, FIVE REGIONS, ONE ENDLESS ARENA Grassland, frost, ash, shadow and void, each with its own tileset and its own boss. Every campaign map is scored 1 to 3 stars on the lives you keep. Clear it, then unlock Heroic (tougher enemies, half the lives) and Iron (a single life, waves that never stop). Then step into the Endless Arena, where all six bosses rotate and the only question is how long you last. Global leaderboard included. SPEND YOUR STARS Stars buy six permanent talents: damage, gold income, starting lives, starting gold, skill cooldown and hero power. Prices climb, and there are never enough stars for all of them, so you commit to a direction โ€” then refund and rebuild whenever you want. ALSO INCLUDED โ€ข Daily challenges that pay out mid-run โ€ข Achievements and lifetime stats โ€ข Cloud save across your devices โ€ข 15 languages, right-to-left included โ€ข Colorblind mode that recolors enemies and interface alike โ€ข Fast-forward, auto-wave, pinch to zoom, four targeting modes per tower โ€ข Plays offline โ€” the game never blocks on the network Place the right tower. Hold the line.
