Our take on War Heroes: Invasion
Players who want clear battlefield visibility may hit a wall in Night mode, where reduced visibility changes how closely enemy movement can be monitored. Those who prefer to set the pace may also find Survival mode a sticking point, as its description puts enemies in control of the conditions.
What is War Heroes: Invasion?
War Heroes: Invasion is a tower defense game about protecting a main base from enemy forces.
Players place defenses, choose tactics, and upgrade towers and heroes while responding to enemies with different abilities. The game has 15 tower types with upgrades, including homing missiles, anti-tank guns, machine guns, and flamethrowers, and more than 25 enemy types. Three heroes offer additional skills and forces.
