Tiny Empire: Castle Defense

Raise a tiny kingdom into a spacefaring empire — then defend it.

Tiny Empire is an idle empire builder, a castle-defense game and a tower-defense game in one. Build your town, research upgrades, train a real army, and hold your gate against everything the wilds send at you. Your empire keeps producing while you're away, and it all plays offline.

RULE 8 ERAS
• Advance from the Stone Age through Castle, Gunpowder, Discovery, Industrial and Modern — into a neon-lit Information city and a starlit Space colony
• Every era transforms your whole town: buildings, walls, units, even the sky
• Offline earnings: your empire keeps producing while you're gone

BUILD YOUR EMPIRE
• Place and upgrade Gold Mines, Sawmills, Farms, Quarries, Storehouses, Barracks and your Town Hall
• A living base — waving banners, chimney smoke, a shimmering moat, grazing sheep
• Research tree, resource market, idle expeditions, daily quests and kingdom events

EXPLORE THE WILDERNESS
– Pan past your walls: forests, wild deer and boar, berry bushes, gold and stone deposits
– Rebel camps dot the wilds — tap one to raid it; farther camps hit harder
– A minimap tracks your town, your resources, and every camp

COMMAND A REAL ARMY
• Five troop types with rock-paper-scissors counters: Soldiers, Pikemen, Archers, Cavalry, Catapults
• A leveling Commander with a skill tree and a devastating Hero Strike
• Pick your stance — Aggressive, Balanced, or Defensive — before every fight

TWO WAYS TO FIGHT
• DEFEND: siege waves stream toward your gate — hold the line through Night Raids, Blood Moons and the Battering Ram boss
• TOWER DEFENSE: build and upgrade towers along the winding lane, repair the gate, unleash the Hero Strike
• 24 campaign levels across three regions with live difficulty ratings — from the Bandit Camp to the Ember Throne

AN EMPIRE TO GROW
• Chief levels, achievements, battle pass, unit veterancy, login streaks
• Prestige: rebirth for permanent, stacking empire bonuses
