About this game
The Orcish Marches - a desolate frontier where a lonely outpost stands between civilization and the horde. As commander of a beleaguered garrison, you must hold the line against waves of orcs, trolls, and goblins that grow fiercer with each passing day. Build walls, man the ballista, and rally your defenders - because when night falls on the Marches, the drums never stop.
Defender of the Orcish Marches is a real-time tower defense game where you command a fortress under siege. Aim your ballista to cut down enemies directly, hire defenders to patrol and fight autonomously, and send menials scrambling to collect the spoils of war before the next wave hits.
Command Your Garrison: Recruit from four distinct defender classes; Engineers who repair battered walls, Pikemen who hold the line in melee, Crossbowmen who rain bolts from tower tops, and Wizards who unleash devastating fire across the battlefield.
Build and Fortify: Construct walls during the night phase with time slowed to a crawl. Recruit your defenses, use your ballista, and spend hard-won gold on upgrades that could mean the difference between survival and ruin.
No Two Runs Are the Same
Choose a Commander class that reshapes your strategy. Collect Relics between nights that combo into powerful synergies. Activate Mutators for brutal challenge modifiers and massive score multipliers. Daily events keep every run unpredictable.
Grow Stronger Between Runs
Earn War Trophies and Legacy Ranks from each attempt. Invest in permanent upgrades - stronger ballista, faster menials, tougher walls - and climb from Recruit to Mythic across dozens of runs. Unlock Achievements to access new Mutators and push your score even higher.
