Starfall Keep
Read full descriptionHide full description
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. • FOUR TOWERS, REAL CHOICES — Bolt slows, Pyre burns, Venom poisons, Arc strikes hard. Land two elements on one foe to PRIME it for bonus damage. • THE LONG DESCENT — 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. • DRAFT RELICS — choose a run-warping relic after every victory and build around it. • THE ARMORY — bank permanent upgrades between runs. Every descent makes the next one stronger. • AN ENDLESS HORDE — runners, flyers, armored brutes, self-healing beasts, motherships, and the Starfall Dragon waiting at the bottom. • MINT GOLD — raise the treasury tower and bank a dividend every wave. Slow them. Burn them. Hold the line — and drive the dark back down.
