Our take on Tower Factory
The game’s factory-building layer adds production planning to each defensive run, but that also divides attention between logistics, exploration, and tower placement. Players focused only on wave combat may have less room for that narrower style of play.
What is Tower Factory?
Tower Factory combines tower defense, factory automation, exploration, and roguelite progression.
Each run begins with a factory built from scratch, using conveyor systems to produce resources and unlock additional buildings. Those resources fund towers and upgrades for defending against enemies that arrive during the day and primarily at night. The map is procedurally generated, with fog hiding the enemy castle, rewards, additional building space, and other hazards. Runs include six levels, six bosses, 13 towers with 26 upgraded versions, more than 20 factory buildings, and over 70 permanent progression upgrades. Boss victories unlock new mechanics, while permanent upgrades carry benefits into later adventures.
