Tower defense · In review
End of Days: Tower Defense is a tower defense game for iPhone and iPad. Build and fork twelve lines of emplacements around the last human city while mechs, drones, walkers and machine infantry grind toward the core — wave after announced wave, boss after named boss.

Real footage, captured on the iPhone simulator before release with the game’s built-in autoplayer at the controls.
Every sprite, searchlight and muzzle flash below is drawn in code at runtime — the game ships with zero image or audio files. Tap any shot for full size.
Built in the tradition of the Warcraft III custom tower-defense maps: fixed build plots along a creep path, numbered waves announced in advance, and upgrade trees that fork. Leaks cost lives, not the run.
Six damage types meet six armour types on a matrix that swings from 0.35× to 1.75×. A board that reads the incoming wave beats a board with 40% more gold.
Every tower line forks into two mutually exclusive tier-4 specialists. Depth is more gold-efficient; width buys coverage. Armour wants one, swarms want the other.
Banked gold earns interest, and sending the next wave before its countdown ends pays a bounty bonus. Both reward the player who's ahead — and punish hesitation.
A flamethrower owns an intersection and nothing three cells away. Some superweapons own the whole map — and you only get one.
Each line climbs three tiers, then splits. Pick one specialist and the other is gone for that tower.

Thirty-nine wave units — drones, crawlers, walkers, flyers — and six named bosses waiting at the end of the campaign's acts.
“It commanded the sweep that took the northern districts. It remembers the layout of our streets better than we do.”
“A drone carrier the size of a cathedral, and every window is a hangar.”
“It does not follow the road. It is in the process of deciding where the road was.”
“Nine bodies, one decision. They sing to each other on a frequency that makes our teeth ache.”
“They built it to dismantle a mountain range. We are a smaller job and it is taking its time.”
“Not a soldier. The thing the soldiers were an argument for. It has come to see the end personally.”
