Your goal is to put up towers and barriers that will prevent them from ever reaching “Heaven.” Of course, you start off with the simple type of barriers; water, cannon, or even bomb. Once you gain experience and have killed enough monsters, you’ll have a chance to exchange the gold for better barriers.
There are several types of monsters and some are resistant to certain tower barriers. Hence, you’ll need to strategize and take into account their vulnerability as well as hit points. Even though this may seem a bit overwhelming, once you start playing it becomes quite simple to learn.
