About

Gorge Defense

Features
Read full description

Gorge Defense is a 2D cooperative tower defense game built around cross-support gameplay. In each match, two players defend opposite slopes of a canyon. You place defenses on your side, but your towers and attacks support your teammate across the gorge — and they support you in return. Success depends on coordinated placement, timing, and covering gaps in each other’s defenses. A match is structured in short preparation steps: - place and adjust towers and weapons - add barricades and traps to reinforce the slopes - select a hero loadout and a shared drone weapon When the wave starts, enemies climb from the gorge and the team defends both sides using towers, traps, and active shooting. Progression is based on unlocking weapons and upgrading them. The game includes 20+ weapons. Each weapon can be evolved once, improving its performance and adding a visible upgrade. Between matches you receive rewards, improve hero skills, unlock perks, and advance in ranking. Features: - 2D co-op tower defense for mobile - gameplay focused on protecting your teammate’s side - 20+ weapons with upgrades - short matches designed for quick sessions - progression, perks, hero skill upgrades, and ranking
