Gold

Gold is the player's primary resource in every game in the Kingdom Rush franchise.
==Description==
Every stage gives the player a predetermined amount of gold to spend on towers and upgrades. Heroic and Iron Challenge stages usually give more gold in the beginning. Every enemy gives a different amount of gold, which usually depends on their strength and HP.
