Anotherland Above

 

 

Anotherland Above is a cozy, windy tower defense roguelite. Mine stone by hand, build a maze of towers round your keep, merge them into something stronger, and decide how far to grow. Every new land gives you room and stone, but it also opens another gate for the enemies.

Mine by hand. Every rock is a few crunchy knocks. Shape the path: enemies take the shortest way, a wall makes them walk round. Merge two of a kind to level up, and evolve two level 2s into a level 3 with one of three powers.

 

Grow, or hold. Every new land is turned into place before it goes down: more room and new buildings, but a new gate, and the paths follow.

 

Night falls and the enemies come. Every third night is a blood moon: the sky turns red and minibosses pour out of every gate. After the third land, the boss land rises.

 

• Miner: dashes into slimes and pushes them onto Spikes. A big stone grows every morning.
• Ranger: a fully drawn bow marks a slime, so Archers hit it harder.
• Knight: slams the ground with a shield and recruits extra knights for the Barracks.

 

Attack	Archer · Cannon · Spikes · Storm rod
Defense	Wall · Frost · Lure totem · Barracks
Economy	House (build a village, if you can keep it safe)

Every building merges up to level 3, and every level 3 has three evolutions to choose from.

 

• Easy, Normal and Hard, each with its own badge for clearing it.
• A practice island that teaches every system step by step.
• Endless mode after the boss, as far as you dare.
• Upgrades between runs: the first few runs are meant to be lost.

Made with the controller in mind. It needs a keyboard or a controller, so it is not playable on phones. Tested with Steam Deck.
