Nordhold is a tower defense game for strategy enthusiasts who crave high replayability through endless combinations. Build and manage a cozy medieval Nordic village while enjoying deep tactical gameplay that doesn't require extensive learning.
With over 20 buildings offering diverse strategic development options through unique upgrades and meta-progression, find the balance between economic growth and defending Nordhold.
8 towers with unique abilities offer numerous customization options. Fine-tune your tactics to protect Nordhold effectively.
Which general should defend Nordhold? Choose from hundreds of hero combinations! Relics grant you bonuses across the board, whether for your economy or defense. The oracle always gives you a different choice, for example: 5 waves of stronger enemies, which also offer higher rewards, or 5 waves of cheaper tower construction?
The snowball effect becomes reality. Smart decisions create synergies that let you conquer ever-stronger waves of enemies and bosses in a firework of effects.
Compete globally or with friends in our ranking system. Can you reach the Valhalla rank?
