Description



Element TD 2 is the culmination of 15 years of Tower Defense development, with the original mod having been downloaded over 5 million times across WarCraft 3, StarCraft 2 and Dota 2. With dozens of towers, alongside an array of maps to test your defenses, this is a feature-packed standalone sequel prepared to challenge Tower Defense players.

Let Elements Collide


With 6 elements that combine to create 59 unique towers, you will need to anticipate incoming waves, their elements, and tailor your approach to maximize your defense. Each element has its own strengths and weaknesses, so choosing the right upgrade paths is crucial to winning.

Cooperate To Conquer


Work with up to 8 players to synergize your elemental choices, tower upgrades, and plan your placements. Together you will withstand the enemy assault of ever increasing waves, culminating in an endless boss battle.

Compete To Survive


There is also a cutthroat game of survival to play. Buckle down and turtle to outlast your opponents in the long run or go in hard and fast to rush them to their death. With both 8 player free-for-all and 1v1 ranked play, you have choices in how to compete with others.

Great tower defense game. Get the "Mazing" dlc to take it up a notch. I find it more challenging than some tower defense games. I bought it on the Steam Spring Sale and it was well worth it.

Elemental TD 1, but its 2 instead. Campaign and an expansion? I mean that's more content than you would have gotten from 1 right? If you like tower defense games it scratches the itch for sure, but its still a little
