The Chroma Wars: A World on the Brink

D.O.T. Defence delivers a sprawling, high-stakes military epic told across 25 missions and three distinct campaigns. Spanning 8+ hours of tactical gameplay, the story plunges you into the heart of the Chroma Wars, a global struggle for control over a volatile, world-altering energy known as Chroma.Experience the conflict from three unique perspectives. Begin with the disciplined ranks of the U.C.F., transition into the Zombonomics of Chromatech, and eventually terraform the planet as the Invaders. What starts as a territorial dispute quickly spirals into a desperate race to unleash Chromatic devastation.No two missions feel the same. The campaign keeps you on your toes, constantly shifting the rules of engagement:The Classics: Test your grit in traditional wave defence and commander vs commander battles.Special Ops: Put your patience to the test in the stealth missions or race against the clock in speed run attacks.Unique Challenges: Solve intricate army deployment puzzles or flip the script in boss mode rampages, where you become the unstoppable force the enemy fears.

Turret Mayhem


Your regions are the beating heart of your economy; defend them against hordes of enemies vying to seize your resources with a variety of turrets. Each turret presents a strategic choice, so mix and match wisely, and sell as needed based on the challenges you'll encounter!

Wave Defence


Protect your HQ at all costs by building turrets and production buildings for heavy defense. While Skirmish mode offers a novel RTS experience, try your hand at Wave Defence.

You might be visited by a merchant who offers unique tile mods to enhance your buildings!

Probably the second worst campaign I ever played. The zombies are fun but everything after is just complete garbage. You either play how the level was designed or you lose. On all difficulties. You also unlock things over time to use in the campaign. Doesn't matter. Got a cool ability? Don't care. Got a cool new building? Hope it works into the level. If not, you're not using it. The ending level was the biggest slap in the face too. The alien race is completely useless except for it's terribly overpowered titan. If you beat the red faction and YOU WILL as the tank doesn't self heal like every other one does, you have 5 minutes to win. In character? Sure! Is it fun? No. You forgot to make it fun. And then you have to beat every other titan. If you didn't plan ahead, you lose. If you can't corner it, you lose. Then when you do win you unlock global conquest. Essentially, flood the entire map with units and the rest of the map doesn't REALLY matter except for building defences. One of the biggest let downs ever. You had a good premise at the start of the campaign. Stop FORCING a playstyle after you introduce a few of them. Let the campaign be a challenge to be taken from multiple…

As someone who grew up playing Advance Wars, I could immediately see where this game gets a lot of its inspiration from. The problem is that despite all the new ideas it tries to add, I'd still rather just go play Advance Wars. The first thing that nearly killed my interest was the tutorial. Tutorials are supposed to get players excited about a game's mechanics and hook them into the experience. Instead, this one felt like an endless chore that dragged on forever. By the end of it, I wasn't excited to keep playing—I just wanted it to be over. The controls and movement system are also far more complicated than they need to be. Rather than giving you straightforward control over your units, you're constantly fighting with awkward pathing tools that make simple maneuvers feel frustrating. The combat itself never really clicked either. Unlike Advance Wars, where battles feel predictable and strategic, D.O.T. Defence often feels chaotic for all the wrong reasons. The pacing is another issue. Progression feels unnecessarily slow, with features and content locked behind grinding when there honestly isn't enough content to justify stretching things out. The game also feels rough around the…

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
