Play Overview
Rift Riff (2025) is a strategy battle where you defend against waves of monsters with defensive towers. Play involves working through a series of worlds, defeating monsters and earning upgrades to get through rifts to the next world. It stands out for the relatively free placement of your towers that leads to an unusually open-world feel for this tower defence game.
Monsters attack in waves, either going straight for your base or your towers. Your task is to place towers tactically between waves and earn enough juice while fighting to upgrade them. As you survive more waves of monsters, you gain new worlds to explore and more types of towers and upgrades to deploy.
