About the game

You build the road the invaders walk. Lay their path piece by piece, then line it with towers, traps and fused war machines. A roguelite tower defense with a new build every run, 15 hand-made missions, co-op for up to 4 players online, on one couch or with bots, and head-to-head Versus.

Original Steam description

You build the road the invaders walk


Every horde follows the path you lay. Pick a road piece, bend it past your strongest towers, fork it around a power pad, or pave a fast lane for the payout. Then hold the line against 15 hordes, three bosses and whatever the run throws at you.

A new build every run


  • 15 towers and 42 relics, branching specializations and tower mastery, drafted after every horde
  • Fuse three neighbouring towers into one war machine
  • Risk tiles, road combos, contracts, events and a Black Market change how each run plays
  • Horde twists and elite traits: no two runs of a sector play alike

Commanders on the field


Six commanders, each with a hero who fights on the battlefield, levels up during the run and learns a signature skill. Time their ability and your Airstrike for the moment the horde bunches up.

Play together, or against each other


  • Online co-op for 1–4 players: every player lays their own road to one shared core
  • Couch co-op for 2–4 players: one screen, a controller and a road each. Steam Remote Play Together brings friends in online
  • Versus for 2–4 players: the same hordes on separate roads. Send packs into your rivals' hordes, watch their road live, and be the last core standing
  • Play with bots: bot partners or rivals at Easy, Normal or Hard, and the Gauntlet, a five-rung ladder of bot rivals
  • Friends-only or public lobbies through Steam

Operations: 15 hand-made missions


A campaign across all five sectors. Every mission has its own map, Threat, mutators and briefing, and three stars to earn: win it, keep the core strong, and meet its goal. Play them alone or together in co-op.

Five sectors, a long road to mastery


  • 5 sectors, each with its own road rule and final boss: salvage wrecks, ice sheets, chasm bridges, foundry presses and citadel checkpoints
  • Threat 0–10 in every sector, 9 mutators for bonus score, endless hordes and Boss Rush
  • The Expedition: three sectors in one run, carrying your towers, relics and hero from leg to leg
  • Daily runs and a weekly challenge, alone or in co-op, three bounties a day and seasonal leaderboards
  • 29 ranks of unlocks, commander levels, a permanent Workshop and 97 achievements
  • Relaxed difficulty for a gentler first road

Made to share

Send a road code so friends can play your exact run, race another player's daily or weekly run beside yours, save a run card, or clip your best moment. Steam Game Recording marks boss kills and close calls for you.
