Skip it if you…

Our take on HexTD
The focus on route-building and match variation comes at the cost of a fixed, repeatable battlefield. Players must adapt tower placement to each generated map and the changing behavior of enemies.
What is HexTD?
HexTD is a tower defense game centered on shaping enemy movement.
Players choose one of three classes, then deploy machines, soldiers, or elementals to create routes toward their base. Maps are randomly generated, and towers can be placed freely, allowing different path layouts in each match. Enemies also behave with some randomness, while bosses add additional threats to defend against. Each class has a distinct gameplay style, creating different strategic approaches. The game supports solo play and cooperative sessions with one friend.
