About
Defend your Basin, it must stand.
TDS Tower Defense Strategy is a Tower Defense, Real-Time Strategy Hybrid at its core. Build up, grab your friends, and defend against the Tides that approach.
Maps have no path, no limits, and most importantly... Enemies will fight back.
Control a Vessel, they are your anchor to the world.
Vessels in themselves are both a unit and a tower. Control them to mine, fight, and build your defense. Each of which comes with their own set of extremely unique towers to help in this endeavor.
Towers, units. Simple yet deep.
Expand your defense through an extremely rich set of upgrades that all play off one another. Synergistic in nature, there are many combinations and strategies you can employ to increase your effective hold. Towers can expand on one another, Vessels can too.
Handcrafted, fully realized unique maps.
On your adventure you will encounter MANY diverse maps, from floating woodcraft in the sky to massive derelict structures. Not only in their visual design but down to the very gameplay of them. No two maps are the same. And each one will challenge you systematically.
Outsmart, overpower.
Placement is key; you can make it through by sheer power, but you can also do so through your wit. There are many points in which your actions have a bearing more than simply upgrading to the next best thing. Create an ultra powerful single tower, create an impenetrable wall. You can even beat whole areas utilizing no towers* (Please fact check me on this)
TDS is better with friends!
Play with up to 3 of your fellow Vessels and defend together! There are infinitely more combinations and strategies when you play with friends (including goofy cheese ones)

The game has challenges for all with areas containing all matters of difficulty. It CAN be really hard, expect resistance. But also have a fun time!

Really fun tower defense game, I've been a player of blockage games for a while now. The game's artstyle and music are really nice and give a really relaxing vibe, though later waves definitely can feel intense. I do agree with some complaints about the UI and experimentation definitely can feel discouraged when playing, but I don't find it too much of a problem personally. The game has a lot of content for a tower defense game, with more maps then I can count and five characters which all play very different from one another. It's also multiplayer, which I find isn't too common with these types of games, but I find a big bonus. A key mechanic that makes me really like this game are the Cardinals. Giving a roguelike-esque vibe, they give different bonuses to resource gathering, stats, or miscellaneous effects. Using them with different vessels and maps allow for numerous synergies and adds a layer of planning to the game before you even challenge a map. TLDR: Fun & Challenging tower defense game, multiplayer is nice, and lots of loadout diversity. WOULD RECOMMEND
sno... snoo...

Hidden Gem of a Tower Defense, even better with 4 player co-op. Not that far in, but this game has a lot of passion behind it. The 3D enviorment for a tower defense really makes the placement position matter more. (Wish there was a reconnect feature for players who drop mid-level tho) Also, yes, the UI is pretty bad, but i played the Tutorial and i stumbled thru it and figured it out.
Solid game. Pretty fun, but without the tutorial, you will be absolutely confused. Also, the UI is a bit weird, takes a while to get used to. That is one of the main weaknesses of TDS. By the way, its weird that some upgrade paths dont have T3, T4 or T5 upgrades... Apart from that, nothing else really, except the fact that u cannot rejoin a match if u had a disconnect in coop. Still neat, keep up the good work! ...and pls update NK some day....
It is a really interesting game, now it can be played solo or multiplayer and its a good experience in my opinion, it did take a little bit to learn what i was doing though so go in with a mind that its a bit difficult
This game drove me mad, I couldn't play for a long time so I strategized on how to build my offense with no towers
