—Prepare for the onslaught! Chromatrix is a retro tower defense game where color and placement are everything. Upgrade and customize your turrets to counter shifting enemy-types and map configurations. Manage your resources and craft the perfect defense against any attack!

Chromatrix is a continuously evolving, retro-style Tower Defense game where you protect your tiles from relentless enemy waves. Study a variety of enemy types, both flying and ground-based, and master the unique interactions between shapes and colors to perfectly match your defenses to each increasingly challenging wave. Prepare for intense battles with powerful bosses at the end of every wave!


Manage your turrets and strategically counter enemies by leveraging their color-coded strengths and weaknesses. Each turret has two branching upgrade paths, allowing for unique strategies to emerge and evolve as you play.

Every turret not only has its own elemental color and traits – red turrets are most effective against red targets, blue turrets excel against blue, and so on – but also features two branching upgrade paths, allowing for diverse playstyles and strategies. Discover the tactics that suit your approach best – and wreak havoc on your enemies!
