Our take on Fieldrunners
Instead of centering on characters or a linear campaign, the game places tower selection, defensive control, and upgrades at the center of play. Its structure uses eight separate maps and repeatable enemy-wave challenges rather than a single continuous setting.
What is Fieldrunners?
Fieldrunners is a tower defense game focused on defending and controlling the field with upgradeable towers.
