Description

A cozy 3D tower defense on little hexagon islands, where every hit shatters marching skeletons into showers of bouncing, physics-driven bones.

Waves of skeletons march along the roads of small hexagonal islands toward your castle. Build towers, upgrade them and find the right mix to stop them. Every hit shatters the skeletons into physics-driven bones that bounce and scatter, and kill streaks ring out like a bone xylophone.

The campaign crosses hand-crafted levels on islands with different biomes: green meadows, snowy mountains, desert dunes and more. Different enemies need different answers, so every wave is a small puzzle: read what's coming, pick the right towers and place them wisely. The toughest waves end with a boss.

Every island is a living diorama. Petals ride the wind in the meadow, snow falls in the mountains, heat haze and sandstorms sweep the desert. Windmills, boats and trees react when you click them, and a photo mode with a free camera and tilt-shift focus lets you capture the scene.

Play with mouse or controller, in 21 languages.
