About the Game
The Continent has fallen. The Invasion is here. You are the city of Belrak’s last hope of survival!
The Gate Must Stand is a medieval fantasy roguelike tower defense game that puts you in the thick of the action! Choose your valiant warrior, recruit your allies, upgrade their skills, and discover powerful synergies to hold the last line of defense.
Remember: heroes can fall, but the gate must stand.
Strategically place your followers, then fight alongside them as you cover each other, repel enemies, and combine your strength to unleash chaos across the field. It is base building, with you at the centre of its defense, use real time tactics or hack and slash your way through!
Pick your battles carefully, though: your allies can revive and regroup after death, but the city gate’s demise is final.
Berserk attackers, relentless assassins, devastating spellcasters, stalwart defenders - each hero’s combat style presents new opportunities to experiment with unique builds and find powerful synergies.
Resource management is key to building the perfect run. Pair your hero with dozens of different followers, each with multiple upgrade paths, to truly maximize your defense!
Face off against apocalyptic demonic bosses every 5 minutes. Defeat them to claim their game-changing relics - but tread carefully, for risk and reward go hand in hand…
Each hard-won mystic relic can be used to evolve your followers into their ultimate forms, turning the tides of battle against ever-growing threats.
Every run brings a fresh challenge! Adapt your strategy dynamically as you upgrade your hero, and deploy your arsenal of followers with precision to fend off the murderous waves.
And if the gate does fall? Action Roguelike progression means that each time you have a new opportunity to prevent your demise. Your blood stained experience unlocks new content, allowing you to fortify your defenses and grow stronger for the next run.
