About Ashkeep
Ashkeep is dark medieval tower defense built for the phone.
Pick one of 20 painted holds. Open Keeps, press and hold on the ridge, release to plant. Send the wave. Spend reserve on one of two upgrade paths — the other locks. Sell has a short undo. Call the ridge when the column breaks. Clear ten waves, then ride Aftershock or retire with the score.
What's in this build
• 20 holds, including split-path tracks (Switchback, Void Rift, Steamworks, Cinder Fork, Iron Siding)
• 18 keeps with fire, frost, bolt, bile, and bomb shots
• Core bar on the frame plus lives remaining
• Warders soak hits and Chanters heal on later waves
• Daily hold with a local best
• Ember bed and distinct shot sounds
• Landscape play: map full height, Keeps left, Start right
• No account. Progress stays on the device.
• Free to play, supported by a short ad when a round ends — never during play.
How to play
Turn the phone sideways. Tap Keeps, choose a tower, hold on open ground, release to plant. Tap Start. Upgrade from Keeps after you select a planted tower.
