What is The Wall?
The Wall is a free-to-play, Early Access shooter structured around team matches. A central wall separates opposing teams until it opens manually or automatically. You dig through terrain, place fortifications and generators, and manage energy, wood, and minerals to build, buy, and upgrade; skills and weapon customizations persist between matches.
For you if...
- +you enjoy balancing aggressive attacks with slower economic buildup
