About Dungeon Works: Core Defense
Build the dungeon. Shape the invasion. Protect the core.
Dungeon Works is a strategy defense game where construction is part of the battle. Dig your own routes, set up defenses, and hold off invading heroes across 10 waves.
DESIGN THEIR ROUTE
Excavate corridors and build 2×2 rooms with four defense slots. Use temporary walls to change enemy paths, then decide where your limited gold will make the biggest difference.
COMBINE FOUR DEFENSES
Slow enemies with spike traps. Cover the route with skeleton archers, strike groups with magic towers, and use curse glyphs to increase the damage enemies take. Find a combination that works with your layout.
ADAPT BETWEEN WAVES
Face knights, scouts, and shield soldiers. Choose a perk after waves 3, 6, and 9. Upgrade or sell facilities and undo construction as you prepare for the next attack.
LEARN FROM EACH BATTLE
Review facility damage, kills, and damage to the core in your battle reports. Try a different layout and see how it changes the result.
BUILT FOR LANDSCAPE PLAY
Select a tile and confirm placement with touch controls. Zoom and pan across the map, adjust battle speed, and return to progress saved on your device. English and Korean are supported.
The current demo includes one map and 10 waves. The product menu is a preview; purchases are not available in this version. An optional More Games menu shows house ads for other games from the developer.
