Maul Tactics

Build the maze. Break the wave.Maul Tactics is a maze-building tower defense where every tower you place changes the path enemies must walk. Turn an open field into winding corridors, combine damage and control, and make every step toward your core cost them.Play through The Broken Roads, a fifteen-chapter Story Campaign, master fifteen playable races, challenge AI rivals, or take your maze online against friends.BUILD THE PATH, THEN BUILD YOUR PLANDouble the route back through your strongest towers. Slow enemies inside a kill corridor, break up a swarm with splash damage, or concentrate your fire on a tough target. Your layout, upgrades, and economy work together: a longer maze only helps if your towers can hold it.THE BROKEN ROADS — 15-CHAPTER STORY CAMPAIGNXulgath has seized the Crown and closed the roads between fifteen towns.
