Tower Tide is a fast 1v1 strategy and card battle game. Build a base in a hidden 60-second setup, send your troops down the routes you draw, and outsmart a rival captain in a five-minute battle on an island the Tide keeps reshaping. BUILD THE TOWER Bring a deck of eight cards: stubborn buildings, brave troops, and a few sneaky tactics. Grow six connected buildings from your Keep, orient your Walls, and draw the paths your Guards and Archers will march. COMMAND THE TIDE Every 30 seconds the Tide sinks or resurfaces part of the island. Lanes open, lanes close, and both plans have to adapt. Release trained garrisons at the perfect moment, open a secret Passage, drop a Pitfall, or rally your wave for the final rush. SMALL ISLAND. BIG TROUBLE. One minute to build. Four minutes to outsmart your rival. An accelerated overtime rush decides close games, and a rematch is always one tap away. PRACTICE, CAMPAIGN, AND ONLINE Learn the ropes against practice opponents, conquer the archipelago in Campaign, then take your deck into ranked online matches against other captains. FRIENDS, RIVALS, CAPTAINS Create or join a Fleet, chat with your crew, add friends, and challenge them whenever they come online. Chat filtering, reporting, and blocking help keep every Fleet fun and welcoming. Tower Tide is free to download. Gems can be bought in the in-game Market and spent on card offers, randomized chests, cosmetics, and Tide Pass. Chest drop odds are shown before purchase.
