Taur

Taur is a sci-fi action-strategy game in which you defend the planet Taurea, home of the Tauron droids, from the Imperion, a warmongering galactic droid empire. You control the Prime Cannon in battle, build defenses and fight to keep the planet from falling into Imperion hands.

Battle and defenses

You control the powerful Prime Cannon, which has a primary and secondary weapon that can fire simultaneously. You can unlock and upgrade weapons, bring different weapons to bear during battle, and use powerful abilities to turn the tide of a fight. Resources from secured war zones let you build defenses including auto-turrets, droids and aircraft.

Every unit, structure, tree and plant can be destroyed. The changing battlefield can create tactical advantages or disadvantages. You must plan defenses against different attacks, including full-scale invasions, air raids, tank sieges and infantry skyfall attacks, as you face increasingly massive Imperion armies.

The campaign

Control of Taurea shifts over time according to your battlefield successes. If the Imperion takes full control of the planet, you lose the campaign. The Taur can be deployed to only one war zone per day, so the others must be abandoned; abandoned zones may cost you control, and you lose their resources.

Securing war zones earns resources for building structures, reforging weapons and researching new technology. The Forge lets you reshape the quality and damage of your Prime Cannon weapons, while research unlocks technology for use in battle. To win the war and end the campaign, you must find a way to defeat the extremely powerful Imperion Overlord.
