Wool at the Gates

I've seen enough tower defense games to spot when one's actually trying something. Wool at the Gates ditches the usual upgrade treadmill in favor of tactical positioning and class synergies. You're managing a hero character and troop formations against waves of invaders while building your defenses smartly. The minimalist presentation means less time squinting at tooltips and more time thinking about positioning and ability timing. It's short, focused, and intentionally designed, no bloat. The 92% positive rating on a small sample suggests players who tried it found real depth in the synergy layer. Controller support and cloud saves are table stakes these days, but the fact that a solo-dev indie tower defense lands that consistently positive tells me the core loop doesn't wear thin. If you want streamlined strategy without the Paradox grandeur or the roguelike run luck, this scratches a specific itch.
