Орда идёт на стену, и кроме тебя её никто не держит. Ты — боевой маг на стене замка, внизу гоблины, орки-щитовики, камикадзе с бомбами, летуны на джетпаках и каменные големы. Молния бьёт по касанию, остальное рисуется пальцем: провёл снизу вверх — ветер сметает врагов за горизонт, обвёл круг — взрыв, прочертил линию — стена огня. Чем точнее жест, тем больнее прилёт. За убитых копится ярость: шкала полная — герой уходит в разнос и выжигает поле своим уникальным заклинанием. Монеты с боя идут в магазин: прокачать ману и заклинания, укрепить стену, взять щит, зелье маны или огнемёт. 97 уровней по пяти землям — лес, камень, снег, пустыня и пекло. Четыре героя, каждый со своим характером и заклинанием ярости. С 20 уровня открывается выживание — волны без конца, пока держится стена. КАК ИГРАТЬ Коснись врага — ударит молния. Остальные заклинания рисуются жестами: • проведи пальцем снизу вверх — ветер отбросит врагов назад; • обведи круг — взрыв накроет всех внутри; • проведи горизонтальную линию — встанет стена огня. Каждое заклинание тратит ману — она восстанавливается сама, поэтому бей с умом. Главное — не дать добежать до стены: когда она падёт, уровень проигран. У каждого уровня три цели — за них дают звёзды и монеты. Монеты трать в магазине: качай запас маны и силу заклинаний, бери в бой щит, ремонт стены или огнемёт, открывай новых героев.
