Defenders of Cardom PC

Play as The Squire in this deck-builder tower defense game and thwart The Dark Lord's reign of terror across the kingdom of Cardom. Build a starting deck, refine strategies against hand-crafted enemy waves, and adapt mid-level with roguelite-inspired deck tweaks for varied runs on the same maps.

Freely explore the hub-world hub to meet quirky characters and uncover the light-hearted, satirical story through RPG elements. Tackle unique levels with custom bosses, maps, interactables, and mechanics, then test limits in Endless Mode's procedural waves.
