❤ Crafting a Powerful Arsenal

At the heart of the gameplay, players can create and combine up to six base gem types, each with distinct abilities. Green gems poison enemies, red gems cause bleeding, blue gems slow them down, yellow gems freeze targets, purple gems drain armor, and white gems deal raw damage. By fusing these gems in various combinations, players can craft hybrid gems that blend the effects, albeit with reduced potency of each individual ability.

❤ Strategically Placing Gems in Diverse Structures

Once crafted, players can place their gems into an array of specialized buildings across the map. Towers provide the bulk of the offensive firepower, while traps, pylons, and lanterns offer more supportive or specialized functions. Carefully planning the placement and synergies of these structures is crucial, as players must construct intricate mazes to funnel enemies into the most effective kill zones.

❤ Unlocking Progression and Customization Options

As players progress, they earn experience points to level up their wizard, unlocking a wide range of passive skills. These skills grant bonuses like enhanced gem properties, improved building effectiveness, and unlockable spells. Additionally, the talisman system allows players to socket and combine puzzle-like fragments, providing powerful stat boosts and special effects to further customize their strategies.

❤ Challenging but Rewarding Difficulty Curve

One of the hallmarks of the experience is its challenging yet satisfying difficulty curve. The game starts off manageable but quickly ramps up, forcing players to optimize their gem combinations, building placements, and skill choices to overcome increasingly powerful enemy waves. Players can engage with this difficulty through story-driven campaigns, open-ended endurance runs, and skill-testing trial modes, with the option to further customize the challenge using a variety of modifying "Battle Traits."
