Compare Diary of Defender prices across 50+ stores and find the best deal. Developed by 5th VR. Published by 5th VR. Released on 7/11/2018. Available on PC. Genres: Violent, Gore, Action, Adventure, Indie, Simulation, Early Access.

A 2018 wave-defense sim that's been in early access for six years, tower-building meets resource management, but the foundation feels unfinished.

Diary of Defender positions itself as a tower-defense strategy game wrapped in a medieval warfare setting. You manage defensive positions against incoming enemy waves, juggling resource allocation and placement decisions. The core loop is there: survive waves, upgrade defenses, repeat. For a sub-5 tier title, it's honest about what it is, though "early access since 2018" is a red flag that development has stalled. The lack of Steam reviews, Metacritic score, or meaningful player base suggests this one never gained traction. If you're hunting for a niche wave-defense sim and can tolerate rough edges and minimal polish, it might scratch that itch. Otherwise, better-maintained tower-defense games exist elsewhere. Not recommended unless you have a specific tolerance for abandoned early-access projects. Diego, Scout Team
