Dwarf Tower

Dwarf Tower is a turn-based tactics game in which you build a tower, manage its rooms and cast spells while trying to destroy your opponent’s Archmage’s Chamber. You can play against the computer or challenge friends in multiplayer.

Build and protect your tower

Each turn, you place blocks, construct rooms and play spells. Libraries store spells, Crystals generate mana, and Dwarf Dwellings provide dwarves who repair the tower. The Archmage’s Chamber is hidden from the enemy and must be protected: if it is destroyed, you lose. Its position in the tower matters, as placing it higher makes it more powerful, and a taller tower has a major advantage over a shorter one.

Dangers and strategy

Lightning can start a fire that destroys the tower over several turns, so you can keep Dwarf Firefighters ready. Some rooms work better underground, where they risk flooding. You aim to destroy the enemy’s Archmage’s Chamber by crushing, burning or flooding it while the opponent tries to destroy yours.
