Coastal tower defence · iPhone & iPad

X-Factor Defense

Kaiju are rising from the sea. Hold the coast!

Your heroes stand on platforms behind a sea wall while crabs, starfish, flying fish, squid and giant kaiju surge out of the waves. Pick your team, time your ultimates, play the tides — and don't let the wall fall.

Battle against the Volcano Turtle: five heroes on the beach behind the sea wall

How you hold the coast

Defend the sea wall

Monsters rise from the sea across three lanes. Your heroes fire from behind the wall; every star you earn depends on how much of the wall is still standing.

Master the elements

Water beats Fire, Fire beats Nature, Nature beats Earth, Earth beats Lightning, Lightning beats Water. From 4★ a hero awakens a second element and sets off one of 10 reactions.

Raise eight heroes

Level them up, raise their stars and unlock new ones with Soul and Mine. Each hero's look changes at every tier from 1★ to 6★, and at 6★ the ultimate turns into its supreme form.

Play the tide

From level 1-6 the tide rises and falls mid-battle: high water brings monsters in closer and faster, low water leaves them wading slowly over the sandbars.

Gear up and build

Equip each hero with a weapon, armour and a charm in four rarities, raise the sea wall through ten levels, and use bombs, barricades, repair kits and freezes in battle.

Come back every day

Daily and weekly missions, achievements, a daily shop with chests whose odds are shown up front, and Mine that keeps piling up while you are away.

The element circle

  1. Water
  2. Fire
  3. Nature
  4. Earth
  5. Lightning
  6. Water

Beat monsters of an element to collect its Soul, then use it to raise heroes of that element.

Meet the defenders

Five heroes, one per element, plus three with a trait of their own. Shown here at 6★.

The Volcano Turtle, a giant turtle with a cracked volcanic shell glowing with lava

Chapter 1 boss

The Volcano Turtle

It surfaces in a ring of foam at levels 1-5, 1-10 and 1-15, stronger every time. At 70 % and 30 % health it flies into a rage, and its shell cracks open to show the lava inside. Beat it for elemental cores to awaken your heroes.
