The tower defense genre has seen its fair share of releases, often overshadowed by its frequent use in promotional ads. However, Sandsoft Games, the creators behind the beloved Pocket Necromancer, have stepped into the fray with their latest offering, Fortress Frontline, now available on Google Play for Android users. This game promises a fresh twist on the genre.
Fortress Frontline simplifies the tower defense experience to its core: you're tasked with defending one side of the screen against waves of enemies, ranging from small and weak to large and formidable. Each run offers a chance to tweak your loadout and unlock permanent upgrades, pushing you to survive longer and achieve higher scores.
While the concept might not sound groundbreaking, Sandsoft Games' reputation at PG Towers, combined with Fortress Frontline's charmingly cartoony visuals, makes it a title worth checking out. But what else does it bring to the table? The game introduces heroes and rare cards that enhance your defense, and a global leaderboard where you can track your progress against players worldwide. Fortress Frontline adopts a Vampire Survivors-like approach to roguelites, where the more powerful you become, the more spectacular your attacks.
