Merge Mercs: Tower Defense TD

Each tier unlocks novel combat roles, from rapid-fire skirmishers to devastating artillery platforms, giving you the tools to adapt your defenses to the ebb and flow of each wave. Every encounter demands a balance between immediate firepower and long-term investment.

The path twists and turns, and enemy compositions shift from swarms of quick raiders to armored brutes, ensuring no single strategy dominates. Master the art of timing, positioning, and fusion to keep your stronghold standing.
