—Rise of the Cones is a tower defense game where a relentless army of cones is marching toward your base. They will not stop. Build towers, shape them with branching upgrades, and figure out how to hold the line.
Rise of the Cones: Planetary Defense
Steam

Something's coming down the path. Cone-shaped machines. Relentless, endless, and heading straight for your base. Your job: build the defense that stops them.
Enemies follow paths. You place towers freely. Every tower type serves a different purpose; raw damage, crowd control, support, area denial. Knowing when to use what is half the game.


Every tower has 3 upgrade paths, each with 5 tiers.
But you can only invest in 2 paths per tower.
That means every tower becomes a decision: do you go all-in on damage, build a long-range zone controller, or make something weird and flexible?


Earn research points from missions, unlock new towers and upgrades. The further you get, the wilder your builds become.
