Command German forces on the Western Front to halt the Allied invasion starting June 6, 1944, in Normandy. This tower defense strategy game challenges you to position 15 tower units like riflemen, snipers, machine gunners, flamethrowers, Flak 88s, tanks, and planes at realistic spots across six large maps with up to eight lanes. Manage resources, deploy eight special abilities such as smoke grenades, mortar strikes, sniper shots, and poison gas, and upgrade units for better damage while facing 17 enemy creep types including Sherman tanks, Spitfires, and Soviet T-34s.
Maps draw from battles like Omaha Beach, Villers-Bocage, Carentan, and Kursk, with two difficulty levels-Rekrut for easier play and Kommandant for a tougher test-plus hidden Easter eggs. Strategy fans who enjoy placing defenses, timing abilities, and handling waves on expansive battlefields will find a focused challenge here.
