Our take on Unholy Heights
Instead of treating tower defense as a standalone battlefield, the game makes the defenders tenants in a managed building. Rent collection, furnishing, relationships, children, and resident behavior become part of the defense structure, while combat interrupts everyday apartment administration.
What is Unholy Heights?
Unholy Heights combines tower defense with apartment management.
As the Devil, operate a tenement for monsters by attracting residents, collecting rent, furnishing their rooms, and managing their happiness. Residents may find work, form relationships, have children, or stop paying. When heroes attack, summon monsters from their apartments and arrange them in pincer formations to fight. The game includes more than 20 monster species, procedurally generated occupations, hobbies, and desires, plus quests that open access to additional monsters and furniture. Performance and play style affect relationships with monster families, while children can grow into stronger members of the household's army.
