What is Dwarf Tower?
This turn-based tactics game centers on matches against the computer or another player. You place blocks and build rooms that store spells, generate mana, or house dwarves who repair damage. The goal is to destroy your opponent’s hidden Archmage’s Chamber while protecting your own.

What players say
74% of 212 reviews are positive
Players praise the combination of building and spellcasting, particularly in matches with friends. They criticize random room draws that can decide matches, and recent reviewers find the computer opponent too easy. A recent review reports crashes and lag in the beta branch while noting that the non-beta version runs fine.
