About these games
Orcs Must Die! 2 is a sequel to the 2011 game from Robot Entertainment, in which players defend fortresses and dwarven mines from hordes of orcs and other monsters. Players can choose the headstrong War Mage, who charges into danger, or the strategic Sorceress, who keeps enemies at bay with mind control and magic. A wide range of traps, weapons, guardians and magical trinkets is available, all of which can be unlocked and upgraded, and the game can be played alone or with a friend, in a story campaign or in Endless Mode with endless waves of increasingly difficult enemies.
Orcs Must Die! Deathtrap is an action strategy game in which you play a mighty War Mage defending the rift from orc hordes. Fighting in third person with melee and ranged weapons, you also set traps that crush, slice and incinerate orcs via physics simulation. Play solo or in teams of up to four, with difficulty scaling to player count; each War Mage brings unique weapons, abilities and traps. Roguelite progression adds randomised buffs and debuffs to hero, traps and levels, shaped also by weather and time of day, and between waves you return to the castle hub to grow stronger before a boss fight with an Orc General.
Orcs Must Die! is a fantasy action-strategy game from Robot Entertainment that puts the player in the role of a powerful War Mage defending twenty-four fortresses against waves of beastly foes, among them ogres, hellbats and, above all, plenty of ugly orcs, using a mix of weapons, spells and traps. Orcs can be roasted in lava pits, flattened by ceiling traps, or frozen and shattered with a slash. A story-based campaign unfolds across three acts, with several difficulty levels including a brutal Nightmare mode, persistent trap upgrades, a scoring system and leaderboards.
Dungeon Defenders: Awakened is a cooperative blend of tower defense and action RPG combat for up to four players. Together you defend the world of Etheria from endless armies of orcs, demons, and dragons while protecting the Eternia Crystal. The heroes Squire, Huntress, Apprentice, and Monk join the fight directly, while you place blockades, towers, traps, and auras. Along the way you collect loot such as swords, crossbows, staves, axes, grenade launchers, and beam sabers, and you can customize your gear, your hero's appearance, and the layout of your defenses.
Hell Warders blends third-person action, RPG and tower defence. Players hold back the demons alone or in a group, first setting up defensive units – archers, knights, mages and catapults –, picking their positions and upgrading their abilities, then joining the fight with their own skills and weapons. There are three heroes to choose from, each with distinct weapons and abilities. Clearing stages earns beacons that upgrade skills and unlock powerful artifacts, and up to four players can battle together, with online matchmaking available.
A hero from one of four classes defends the land of Etheria against an Ancient Evil in this action RPG with tower defense elements. Players build defensive towers while joining the battle directly, facing over 100 enemies at once as well as gigantic boss monsters. Characters and equipment can be upgraded, loot collected, and experience points spent on individual statistics. Up to four players can cooperate online or in splitscreen, and a PvP deathmatch mode is also available.
