About this game
The Tree of Life is being consumed. Stripped of your memories and powers by a sacrificial act, you find yourself in possession of the Corruption Extractor - the only tool that can remove the Corruption from the roots of this world.
Each defeat brings you back to the Tree's roots, where it restores your powers in exchange for the corrupted essence extracted during your trial. Your mission: purify the Tree's timelines - for each failed attempt leaves a branch doomed to oblivion...
With a minimalist feel, Iconia Defenders strips things back to give you a clean and accessible tower defense experience. Battle waves of enemies with a satisfying feedback loop in remembrance of the old school flash games, and a clear view of everything on screen - allowing you to hone your strategy and really feel the results.
You are eternal: every defeat brings you back to the start, but one step closer to success. Unlock cards. Build and customize your deck. Select powerful gemstones to upgrade your skills. Push forth to cure the world of its Corruption.
Each branch of the Tree of Life represents its own unique timeline, its own ordeals, and its own new hope. Embrace your destiny, reclaim your power, and save the world's many timelines from a dark fate!
