How the Game Works

You receive random towers one by one and must place a total of 10 towers to build your defense. Once placed, you set the Countdown—this number represents how many enemies you estimate your setup can defeat. Every 10 seconds, incoming enemies become faster and stronger. If your lives reach zero first, you lose. The closer your estimate is to your actual performance, the higher your score. Survive 3 rounds (with towers, lives, and the map resetting after each round) to claim your final Highscore! Note: You might need a few practice runs to get a feeling for tower strength and ideal estimates.

Theme Interpretation: "Count Down"

The theme is integrated into three core layers of gameplay:

1. The Placement Countdown: A counter ticks down from 10 to 0 as you place your required towers.
2. The Life Countdown: A classic countdown you must keep above zero to stay alive.
3. The Core Mechanic: The player-defined Countdown, where you actively set the enemy goal to test your tactical intuition under pressure.
