You summon human, elf, and orc units to defend a fantasy world threatened by darkness. Runs last up to 150 waves, with unit upgrades and a choice of three random runes after certain bosses. Enemies follow a looping path and remain until killed; your run ends when 70 enemies accumulate or a boss survives its time limit.
