About

Welcome to D.O.T. Defence, a simplified yet deeply strategic RTS experience that seamlessly blends accessibility with tactical depth. We offer a simplified economy system, massive automated battles with light command, and a fun simplified upgrade system. Play in short bursts as matches last between 5-10 minutes!
The only objective is to protect your HQ and destroy the enemies! Crafted by developers passionate about the genre, this game delivers a nostalgic experience reminiscent of their childhoods.


D.O.T. Defence delivers a sprawling, high-stakes military epic told across 25 missions and three distinct campaigns. Spanning 8+ hours of tactical gameplay, the story plunges you into the heart of the Chroma Wars, a global struggle for control over a volatile, world-altering energy known as Chroma.
Experience the conflict from three unique perspectives. Begin with the disciplined ranks of the U.C.F., transition into the Zombonomics of Chromatech, and eventually terraform the planet as the Invaders. What starts as a territorial dispute quickly spirals into a desperate race to unleash Chromatic devastation.
No two missions feel the same. The campaign keeps you on your toes, constantly shifting the rules of engagement:
The Classics: Test your grit in traditional wave defence and commander vs commander battles.
Special Ops: Put your patience to the test in the stealth missions or race against the clock in speed run attacks.
Unique Challenges: Solve intricate army deployment puzzles or flip the script in boss mode rampages, where you become the unstoppable force the enemy fears.

Your regions are the beating heart of your economy; defend them against hordes of enemies vying to seize your resources with a variety of turrets. Each turret presents a strategic choice, so mix and match wisely, and sell as needed based on the challenges you'll encounter!

Protect your HQ at all costs by building turrets and production buildings for heavy defense. While Skirmish mode offers a novel RTS experience, try your hand at Wave Defence. Here, you'll expand your territory gradually, gather supplies to upgrade regions, and strategically place turrets everywhere to face surprising and unique enemies! You might be visited by a merchant who offers unique tile mods to enhance your buildings!

Take command with broad-stroke or macro orders. Set paths for units or let them autonomously capture crucial points. In D.O.T. Defence, simplicity meets strategy!
Command your armies across a persistent map where every territory gained is a foothold in the Chroma Wars. Manage your resources through evolving biomes that shift under the heat of battle, develop new technologies, unleash faction powers to leverage the environment, and resolve grand-scale conflicts through the game’s signature blend of high-speed RTS and Tower Defence… eXplore, eXpand, eXploit and eXterminate your way to GLOBAL DOMINATION!

Gather friends for intense 1v1, 2v2, or free-for-all battles, where every decision counts. Whether you're a seasoned strategist or new to the genre, D.O.T. Defence offers thrilling gameplay that scales to your skill level. We offer AI to at varying difficulties (and yes one cheats!).

With its blend of accessible gameplay and strategic depth, D.O.T. Defence is the perfect choice for players craving local multiplayer excitement. Command your forces, dominate the map, and claim victory in this thrilling RTS adventure!

还是挺有意思的,希望后续更新在遭遇战和波次防守中能带所有的单位,这样可以更有意思
D.O.T Defence is a hybrid RTS/TD game that feels really unique in its execution. Features up to 4P wave and skirmish play modes as well as a full solo campaign! Addictive & very replayable, a real gem. Want to know more?

Very enjoyable. Great mix of mechanics that keeps you juggling your attention around the battlefield. Unique factions with tons of choice in the form of structures/units you bring into each game/mission. Great art style that brings it all together.
战役最后一关是不是有bug,二阶段绿色全屏策反,选别的打不过绿色选绿色打不过蓝色
傻逼游戏,单位得升级解锁(打战役),为了拉高游戏时常不择手段了说是,战役打完(中等难度)还得打几十遍最后一关才能全解锁单位,遭遇战的地图技能都要靠上述方式解锁,可以说如果不打战役连遭遇战都玩不爽,无敌了
скучная херь
玩了五个小时的战役,人类和僵尸阵营体验不错,外星人部分前几关打的有点恼火不清楚是过于弱还是没玩明白。 引导差,防御那关卡了好久最后换成最低难度过去的。 可以增加防御塔的简介,还有怎样搭配防御塔等,毕竟玩这个是来放松解压的 不要搞那么高的学习成本,上强度的话我可以去选择星际帝国要塞魔兽
Incredibly great auto-battler! Has obvious inspiration from several different RTS and several very silly references to various Sci-fi properties. The commanders are varied and have varied abilities and the three factions are super fun to play. They're essentially themed around Armies (C.T.F) swarms that self-create while attacking (Zombies) and A hybrid of the two where the buildings are used as units to support swarms (invaders). There's a nifty little campaign thats got solid mechanics and for how fun this game and how cheap it is it's criminal no one is talking about it.
fun little game
很有创意内容很多
