Sprunki - Draw a defense against zombies
Sprunki flips the tower defense genre on its head by making your drawing skills the core weapon. Instead of placing pre-built turrets, you sketch your own defenses directly onto the battlefield, from simple walls to elaborate contraptions. Each wave of zombies presents a new puzzle, pushing you to adapt your designs and outwit the shambling horde. With no two playthroughs alike, the game becomes a sandbox for strategic experimentation. Whether you're crafting a maze to slow the undead or drawing a catapult to lob projectiles, every stroke matters. It's a delightful challenge for puzzle fans and strategy lovers alike, offering a fresh take on defending your turf.

What is Sprunki - Draw a defense against zombies
Sprunki invites you to pick up a virtual pen and become the last line of defense against the undead. Your imagination is the only limit as you draw your way through waves of relentless zombies.
How to Play
Use your mouse or finger to draw shapes on the play area, creating walls, traps, or weapons that will stop the zombies. Each level begins with a prep phase where you can sketch freely; then watch your drawings come to life as the horde advances.
Tips for Playing
- Draw thick walls to slow down heavy zombies, but save some ink for later waves.
- Create narrow corridors to funnel zombies into a killing zone with traps.
- Experiment with different shapes—a circle can roll and crush, while a spike can impale.
- Prioritize drawing defenses that can hit multiple zombies at once, like a swinging pendulum.
- Don't forget to reinforce your base early; a single gap can be fatal.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I pause the game while drawing?
Yes, the prep phase between waves allows you to draw without pressure. Once you start the wave, the zombies move, but you can still draw during combat.
What happens if my drawing touches a zombie?
Most drawings become solid objects, so they will block or damage zombies on contact. The effect depends on the shape you draw—spikes hurt, while walls just block.
Are there different types of zombies?
Yes, you'll encounter normal walkers, fast runners, and bulky tanks, each requiring different defensive strategies. Later levels introduce even nastier surprises.
Is there a penalty for redrawing a defense?
No, you can erase and redraw as many times as you like before a wave starts. However, during combat, erasing and redrawing takes time and leaves you vulnerable.
How do I earn more drawing ink or resources?
You earn points for each zombie you stop, which can be spent on upgrades between levels or on special drawing tools that use less ink.
Can I share my custom defenses with friends?
While there's no built-in sharing feature yet, you can capture screenshots of your most creative layouts and show them off on social media.
