Wool at the Gates
A minimalist tactical base defense game where you fight as a hero, command troops, and build powerful class synergies while fortifying your city against relentless waves of invading sheep.
Inspired by games like Thronefall, SNKRX, and Warcraft III, Wool at the Gates blends strategic base building with fast-paced hero combat and deep class synergy systems that evolve across each run.

Round-Based Strategy: Plan your defenses during calm build phases, then survive increasingly difficult waves of enemies.
Class Synergies: Combine building types to unlock powerful auto-battler-inspired class bonuses and define your playstyle.
Faction Perks: Choose between Human, Orc, and Elf structures to unlock unique faction-specific upgrades and strategies.
Real-Time Combat: Fight alongside your army as a powerful hero, using abilities and positioning to hold the line during chaotic battles.
