Core Defense: Draw & Defend

Draw lines with your finger and stop the slimes before they reach the core. Core Defense is a pixel-art tower defense game where you don't place towers: you draw your defense in real time.

HOW IT PLAYS
• Slimes come from every side. Swipe to draw lines that block their path.
• Every line costs ink. Ink refills over time and old lines fade, so each stroke matters.
• You can't draw right next to the core. Plan your defense a step ahead.

HEROES AND SKILL TREE
• Pick your hero: the Guardian (armor and staying power) or the Stormcaller (free lightning from the start).
• Grow a skill tree with 5 branches (Spark, Wave, Armor, Arsenal, Spikes), 5 levels each, plus a talent choice in every branch.
• Earn crystals every run and spend them on permanent upgrades and gear.

ENEMIES AND BOSSES
• 24 enemy types, 3 mini-bosses and 8 bosses, each one asking for a different answer.
• Bats fly over your lines, phantoms phase through them, living bombs explode.
• Freeze stops every enemy on screen. Fury charges with kills and gives you free ink.

DAILY CHALLENGE AND LEADERBOARD
• A new daily challenge every day with the same waves for every player.
• Compete on the global leaderboard and unlock 13 achievements and core skins.
• Daily reward with a growing streak bonus.

FAIR TO PLAY
• No forced ads and no in-app purchases.
• Optional rewarded ads only, for extra crystals or a second chance.
• Plays offline, so you can defend the core anywhere.

Simple controls and a strategy layer that keeps growing. If you like tower defense, roguelite upgrades and retro pixel art, draw your first line and see how many waves you can hold.
