Sphere Defense: A Retro Tower Defense Experience on Android

Tomnoki Studio's Sphere Defense is a new Android tower defense game drawing inspiration from the classic geoDefense by David Whatley. The developer, a fan of the original, aimed to recreate its elegantly simple yet challenging gameplay.

The Core Concept:

Earth, or "The Sphere," faces annihilation by alien invaders. Humanity, driven underground, develops new technology to fight back. Years of struggle culminate in a counteroffensive led by the player, tasked with saving the planet.

Gameplay:

Sphere Defense faithfully delivers the classic tower defense experience. Players deploy various units, each with unique strengths, to repel waves of enemies. Successful defenses yield resources to expand and upgrade arsenals. Increasing difficulty levels demand strategic thinking.

Difficulty and Length:

Three difficulty settings (easy, normal, hard) are available, each with 10 stages. Each stage lasts between 5 and 15 minutes. See the game in action:

Diverse Unit Selection:

Seven distinct unit types offer strategic depth. Attack units include the Standard Attack Turret (single-target), Area Attack Turret (area-of-effect), and Piercing Attack Turret (for dense enemy formations). Support units such as the Cooling Turret and Incendiary Turret enhance attack unit effectiveness. Finally, specialized support-attack units like the Fixed-Point Attack Unit (precise missile strikes) and Linear Attack Unit (satellite laser attacks) add further tactical options.
