Level 1 tutorial

New players get a short guide on Level 1, one tip at a time: where to build, how to start a wave, how gold and upgrades work. Skip it any time, or replay it from Settings.

A sixth map: Aether Spire

The longest path yet, with fourteen turns. It holds Levels 91 to 100 and joins the Daily rotation.

Endless milestones, tower mastery and Keep paths

• Endless now pays a one-time reward at waves 10, 25, 50, 75 and 100.
• Towers rank up as they rack up campaign kills.
• The Keep has three upgrade paths. Pick one and grow it.
• Tower combos: some towers boost each other when placed side by side.

Fifteen enemy types

Six new foes: Warden, Aegis, Geode, Flicker, Prism and Obsidian. Each one asks you to build a little differently, and a banner warns you the first time one appears.

Daily challenge, high scores and the Keep

A new run every day with one twist, local top-ten boards for Endless and the Daily, and shards from every run to spend in the Keep.

Hello, Shimmerkeep

The game has a new name and a new painted logo. Endless mode arrived at the same time.
