Elder Gate

The ancient gates tremble under the blows from the Abyss. Hordes of undead swarm from the rift: swift skeletal wolves, lumbering ogres in rusty armor, soulless zombies, and Death itself, whose single blow of a scythe can wipe out your best troops. You are the last Guardian of the Portal. If these creatures break into your world, all will be lost.
⚔️ Classic tower defense with a hardcore pace
Build your economy: place gold mines to generate coins faster.
Build your defense: combine cheap but fast-firing archers, armor-piercing spearmen, heavy infantry, and powerful mages. Each unit is strong against a specific type of undead.
Sweep away the crowds: use devastating tactical magic. Call down fiery meteorites across an area, incinerating entire waves of enemies, or strike elite opponents with chain lightning.
Control the battlefield: place slowing traps, barbed wire that tears armor on contact, and pressure plates that activate volleys of fire.

🧟 Army of Darkness
Your enemies know no fear:
Skeleton Wolves: Fast and agile, they slip past slow towers. Only ice mages can stop them.
Armored Zombies: Slow but incredibly durable tanks. They don't care about arrows; only hammers and explosive magic can knock down their defenses.
Ogres: Attack an area, destroying your structures in a couple of hits.
Scythe Scythe: A mini-boss. Appears suddenly, ignores some of your warriors' armor, and kills any unit with a single strike. Defeating her requires a perfectly orchestrated combination of spikes, freezes, and direct damage.

🛡️ Elder Gate Features:
Deep synergy: combine elements. Place spikes in front of a meteorite pool to damage, then finish them off with lightning. Wire slows an enemy just enough to allow three simultaneous archer shots.
15 waves: how long can you last? Each wave is stronger than the last, and the enemy lineup is generated to disrupt your usual strategy.
Upgrades between runs: Points can be spent in the Guardian's Crypt on permanent upgrades: +5% damage to all archers, reduced magicka cost, increased portal health.
Destructibility: Your towers can be destroyed by ogres. You'll have to quickly rebuild your defenses mid-attack.
Epic visuals: devastating spell animations, detailed models of armored undead, and the cinematic death of every monster.
Strengthen your garrison. Charge your staves. And remember: as long as even one stone of your fort remains standing, the portal is closed.
