== Gameplay ==
The gameplay follows a typical tower defense-style game. You as a player or group of players are tasked with defending your base from enemies on a predetermined route which leads to the player's base. Players can place and upgrade towers and defend the base until they triumph or be overrun by enemies. When the game ends, the player will be rewarded coins (or gems in Hardcore mode) and experience points. They can use these coins, gems, or Robux to buy new and more powerful towers. The game currently has 6 difficulties, them being Easy, Casual, Intermediate, Molten, Fallen and Hardcore modes respectively, alongside 3 Special Modes Badlands II, Pizza Party and Polluted Wasteland II. Each difficulty will contain various unique enemies. Special event modes can also be played when they are in-game.
