Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose which towers to place early game?+
In the early waves, prioritize cost-effective towers that provide good coverage and crowd control. A balanced mix of basic attack towers and at least one crowd control or slowing tower helps manage the unpredictable early wave compositions. Focus on towers with area-of-effect damage to handle grouped enemies efficiently while conserving resources for mid-game upgrades.
How does the wave system work and what should bosses be vulnerable to?+
Waves progress in numbered sets with increasing difficulty. Each wave introduces tougher enemies with higher health and speed. Boss waves feature large enemies with massive HP pools. To counter bosses effectively, deploy single-target damage towers with high DPS and pair them with slowing or stunning control towers. Save your strongest attacks for boss waves and maintain economy reserves for emergency tower deployment.
What are the most important map features to consider when placing towers?+
The key map feature is the enemy path layout, particularly corners and chokepoints where enemies spend the most time in range of your towers. Position towers near path bends to maximize exposure time. Avoid placing towers too far from the path where their range cannot cover multiple path segments. Consider placing economy towers early in safe positions, as they generate income without needing to be in direct path coverage zones.
Where can I find working codes and how do I redeem them?+
Active codes can be found on our Codes page and are updated regularly as new promotions are released. To redeem codes in-game, look for the codes redemption button in the game menu or settings area. Enter the code exactly as shown, including capitalization. Codes typically reward gems, gold, exclusive tower skins, or speed boosts. Note that codes may have expiration dates or limited use limits, so redeem them as soon as possible.
What strategies work best for endless mode compared to standard wave progression?+
Endless mode requires a fundamentally different approach than standard wave progression. Focus on building a strong economy early by investing in income-generating towers before the difficulty spikes. Prioritize tower upgrade chains over deploying many low-level towers. Plan for elemental coverage since later waves feature enemies with resistances. Maintain reserve resources for emergency deployment during surprise wave compositions. Control towers that slow or stun become increasingly valuable in endless as raw DPS alone cannot handle the scaling enemy health.
