Cursed Treasure
In this dark fantasy take on tower defense, you are the guardian of a hoard of cursed treasure. The gold attracts waves of greedy thieves, knights, and sorcerers who will stop at nothing to snatch it. Your job is to fortify your position by placing defensive towers along the enemy's path. But here's the twist: you have only a handful of tower slots, so every placement must count. Choose wisely from a roster of elemental towers, from blazing fire to chilling frost, each with unique strengths and upgrade paths. As the game progresses, enemies become more cunning, some flying over your towers, others armored against your attacks. You'll need to adapt your strategy, upgrading towers at the right moments and unlocking powerful abilities to turn the tide. The challenge lies in balancing offense and defense with limited resources. Will you hold the line and keep your cursed treasure safe, or will the thieves make off with your gold?

What is Cursed Treasure
Take command of a cursed fortress and repel waves of treasure hunters. Strategic placement and timely upgrades are your keys to victory.
How to Play
Select a tower from your build menu and place it on one of the designated spots along the path. As enemies advance, upgrade your towers to increase their damage and range, and use special spells to slow or damage foes.
Tips for Playing
- Upgrade existing towers rather than building new ones to maximize limited slots.
- Place towers at corners and choke points where enemies are forced to linger.
- Pay attention to enemy types and counter them with the matching tower element.
- Save your spells for large groups or tough armored foes.
- Don't neglect the treasure chests themselves; some upgrades protect them directly.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I unlock new towers?
Towers are unlocked by progressing through the campaign levels. Each new area introduces at least one fresh tower type to experiment with.
What happens if an enemy reaches my treasure?
If a thief touches a treasure chest, they steal some gold from it. Lose all three chests and it's game over.
Can I sell towers to rebuild elsewhere?
Yes, you can sell any tower for a partial refund of its cost. This lets you adapt your strategy as new enemy types appear.
Are there flying enemies?
Absolutely. Flying units ignore ground-based obstacles, so you'll need towers that can target air units to stop them.
How do I earn more gold to spend on towers?
Gold is earned by defeating enemies as they cross the map. The tougher the enemy, the more gold they drop.
Is there a way to pause the action?
Yes, you can pause the game at any time by pressing the pause button. This is handy when you need a moment to plan your next move.
