About
Use your gnomes to defend your crops from the goblins on a map that expands every day. On your turn, position your gnomes, prepare your defenses and grow your economy. Test your strategy against endless, procedurally generated encounters and survive long enough to face the goblin king.
Every run in Gnomes is created one of a kind and using a carefully crafted combination of bespoke content and procedurally generated elements. Purchase randomly dealt upgrades and create strategic combinations to unlock your build’s potential. As you progress you gain access to more maps and guilds, each with unique gameplay and challenges.

well balanced tower defense rogue-like. Each level (map) is about 20 min, then unlock new map with unique enemies/mechanics + 1-2 new starting kits.

fun game, good depth. Could do with a UI explainer
Nerf weeds. It trivializes the game.

Это неожиданно приятный рогали с вариативностью. Каждый забег я играл разными стратегиями, и они были играбельными. Буквально второй ран у меня прошёлся покупкой одного предмета, без выставления гном с первого же хода. Тут сложно что-то ещё добавить, проще поиграть самому.
The real question wasn't why he became a gnome, but how he became a gnome so seamlessly that nobody noticed until he came out and said it himself.
Excellent tower defense game. Great variety of builds, classes, maps. Scaling is perfect as well : first the game seems simple enough - earn money, build gnomes, get bonus, win - but when you reach new maps, you start to understand that you will have to optimize every little detail and focus on OP combos to finish the game. Everything is well polished and well thought. A CTRL-Z option for when ou messed up optimization details. Level retry when you felt you were very close and lacked just a little something. Warnings when you forgot to move a gnome near the enemy path. Many interactions make things hard to perfectly plan for. You will very often be challenged in predicting the optimal layout for the rest of the game. Overall, challenging, but rewarding, and above all very fun !
