TetoWar: Wardens of the Ember

Raise a garrison on the board, and turn the night back. A turn-based strategy game where match 3 puzzle meets tower defense. By day you line up three matching recruits to call a captain to the board; by night you hold the ember of Fortress Tetria against the Dusk Legion. The thinking happens before the fighting does. ■ The clock is yours Nothing rushes you — this is tower defense without real-time pressure. During the day you can rework the board as many times as your moves allow. When your plan is set, call the night, and the captains you placed fight on their own from there. Put it down at any point; your run is waiting where you left it. ■ Seven captains, seven ways to fight Archers loose quick shots in every direction. Lancers strike only a fixed reach, but each thrust lands heavy. Gunners sweep their own row. Snipers pierce their whole column. Mages scorch every enemy in range at once. Heavy Guard is the one unit that can halt an enemy standing in front of it, and Medics never attack at all — they mend the units beside them and raise their damage besides. You take four into the night, and that choice is the shape of the night. ■ Merge to grow, then unleash ultimates Line up three of the same captain and they merge into a stronger squad, all the way to Lv5. From Lv4, each class can take an ultimate of its own. Where you place them, and when you merge, is the heart of the defense. ■ Every run leaves you stronger Each run deals a new board and new skills from the Treasury, roguelike style. Spend the Ember Shards a run leaves behind on the Tree of Wisdom — sturdier castle walls, extra moves, captain training, unlocked chronicles and music. Losing is how you get stronger. ■ Three ways to play - Until Dawn (20 days) — survive twenty nights to win - Endless — no finish line. See how far you can hold - Daily Challenge — the same board for everyone, changing each day Compare how many days you held on the rankings. ■ New to the game? Lyra's Guidance walks you through the day and the night in about ten minutes. ■ Purchases There are no in-app purchases. A bittersweet fantasy, led by captains who each have a name. There is no blood and no gore. Enemies driven back dissolve into motes of light. You are not killing them. You are sending them home.
