A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

After crashing on a distant planet, you awaken from your meteorite heart. Defend against swarms of territorial insectoids, hell-bent on your extermination.

Shroom Defenders is a node-based, non-linear Tower Defence. 


Learn to spread your influence over this new alien land, by expanding your network and growing in strength. 

From your meteorite heart, grow Nodes to build and power your defences, and expand your territory.

From your Nodes, grow Shrooms, unique defensive characters with their own strengths and weaknesses.

Defend against mixed waves of four unique enemy types, each with their own strengths and weaknesses too.

But be careful of how you structure your network! Poor placement of your Nodes and Shrooms could lead to unforeseen consequences!


Shroom Defenders was made collectively by students at AIE Melbourne, Australia.
