Description
From the makers of "I Have 1 Day" and "Don't Shit Your Pants" comes a new take on Tower Defense. This is a Tower Conquest. Be the villian instead of the hero, siege instead of defend, and take over the world, one kingdom at a time.
Rather than building towers and defending against hordes of monsters, you are given the reins of an evil mage that builds his army from the ground up to dominate the lands. You must unlock new units, learn new spells, and think up unique summoning strategies to overcome the defenses of your foes.

"Look! The invaders have a priest that is constantly healing them! Shall we take him down, sir? And sir, they also have an elemental that strikes lightning into our towers! And our shots seem to be dampened by that creature over there! What should we do?"
"Isn't it obvious? Focus fire on the giant turtle!"

Yes, I am the evil overlord. That doesn't mean I'm impolite and will have my army of minions trample on your nice grass.

I can just imagine the villagers snickering when they see your evil rainbow of happiness, only to flee in terror when they see what it does.

Hey everyone, due to demand we added an update where all coins on the ground are automatically collected after a round ends. We hope that makes things less frustrating for people.
