Warstone TD Tower defense on moving magic stones

Most tower defense hands you set build spots and calls it a day. Warstone starts you on a near-empty map with a few stones, then keeps dealing more out: new ones appear as a level progresses, and enemies drop some right where they fall. You summon defenders on them, five basic types with their own damage types, costs and upgrade paths: Peasant, Archer, Rifleman, Sorceress and Elemental. Occasionally a Warstone shows up and buffs whoever stands on it, so where you place matters twice over. Late in a wave, with gold to spare, you can drop a stone anywhere valid and keep building. It turns each level into a puzzle that keeps handing you new pieces.

Between missions you come home to your own city, and rebuilding it is half the game. The story unfolds in comic panels with a light, joking tone, and then the town gets to work: buildings you construct and improve unlock more upgrades for your defenders in the workshop, with several tiers for each one. You also train an army and equip your subjects, and call on allies like dwarves, amazons and sorceresses. Progression follows a quest system that introduces new content at a steady pace, so the game opens up gradually instead of dumping everything on you at once. The town is not decoration: what you build there decides what you can field.

After the first four missions you pick a class, and each plays differently. The Warlord powers up your defenders and can even let them level mid-battle. The Treasurer fights with gold: bigger bounties, cheaper defenders, a bottomless backpack, and eventually a spell that turns an enemy into pure coin. The Sorcerer wins levels with spells alone, carrying up to eight instead of four. Skills are non-linear, so you can dip across classes, but focusing one unlocks the strongest abilities. Spells range from Firewall and Lightning to Meteor Shower and Summon Elemental, and with only four slots per battle, the loadout choice is its own decision.
