01 / THE GUIDE
Handcrafted Campaign Stages
The main campaign consists of 18 stages, each built piece by piece with unique mechanics, paths, and hidden Easter eggs. No two battles feel the same, and every stage unlocks additional game modes.
Stages are set across three early‑Linirea landscapes: the Citadel, the Stormcloud Depths, and the far lands of Arcania. Completing stages progresses the story of stopping young Vez'nan before darkness spreads.
- Explore each corner of a stage; hidden Easter eggs often hint at useful strategies.
- Take note of the unique mechanics per stage, as they can affect tower placement and hero usage.

Five Unlockable Game Modes
Every campaign stage unlocks five alternate modes that change the rules. Classic Rush lets you replay with the original 2011 arsenal, while Iron Challenge focuses on surviving a single devastating wave.
Other modes include Blitz for speed, Hero Party where four heroes fight without spells, and Spell Rush that relies solely on towers and spells.
- Try Classic Rush after finishing a stage to compare how the original arsenal handles new mechanics.
- Iron Challenge is a good test of tower placement before tackling more complex modes.
