X-Morph: Defense Complete Edition includes the the following DLC's:
- X-Morph: Defense - European Assault
- X-Morph: Defense - Survival Of The Fittest
- X-Morph: Defense - Last Bastion
- X-Morph: Defense - Soundtrack





Unique fusion of a top down shooter and tower defense strategy. You are the X-Morph - an alien species that invades Earth to harvest its resources and terraform the surface. Strategize in the build mode by carefully selecting various types of alien towers or throw yourself right into heat of the battle. Build mazes for incoming enemies in an environment that provides exceptional planning freedom. Tear down buildings and collapse bridges to support your defense or to simply indulge in a spectacle of unprecedented destruction. Possess a range of unique alien weapons and use defense strategies like you've never seen before in this genre.


Your goal is to defend the X-Morph harvesters from waves of incoming human forces. Each enemy wave is preceded by a setup phase in which the player can check what types of enemies are going to be attacking him and to observe their paths. There is no time limit for this phase, so the player can carefully plan his defenses or choose to start fighting immediately and place towers when needed during the battle. One of the game's key features is the ability to build towers virtually anywhere on the map and to shape enemy paths by connecting towers with laser fences. The player can choose between building long mazes out of basic towers or placing more advanced towers which are more effective at different types of incoming enemies. Advanced tower types specialize in dealing with specific enemy types e.g. flame towers are great for destroying fast moving ground units, artillery towers are best at countering large groups of slow enemies, anti air laser is ideal for shooting down heavy bombers.


As the X-Morph fighter you can engage enemy units directly with a diverse arsenal of weapons. You can morph into four distinct forms which specialize in dealing with different kinds of threats. Each form has a basic attack and a special charged attack mode. The Plasma Fighter is the most universal form - good at destroying both air and ground units. The Dark Matter Bomber is great at decimating groups of ground units. It can also slow down time and release a dark matter bomb that can cut down buildings. The Shredder fighter is perfect for annihilating large numbers of human air units and clearing the sky. Finally the Laser Destroyer is best for smelting large single units. It can also charge up a gravitational anomaly that sucks in smaller enemy units. A large variety of weapons and enemies along with a dynamic, fully destructible environment provides a rich arcade shooter experience.


The game's environments are constructed with a lot of attention to detail and they are almost completely destructible. From small picket fences to huge skyscrapers. Any bridge or building in the game can be collapsed and it's destruction is dynamically simulated using realistic physics. The destruction is not only a visual effect as it can significantly influence the layout of the battlefield. The combination of dynamic environments, laser fences and real time calculated enemy paths creates unique gameplay scenarios.


Humans are desperate to defend their home world. They have created huge, building size, mechanical war machines to fight against each other, but now they will use them to destroy the X-Morph. Each boss fight is unique and heavily influences the gameplay environment. Entire cities will be destroyed.


X-Morph: Defence includes a split screen co-op mode. All missions have different gameplay scenarios designed specifically for co-op play. Enemies attack in larger numbers and from new directions making good cooperation essential to winning. In this mode the game can be played in many different ways, one player can focus on optimizing tower placement while the other shoots at enemies or they can both focus their firepower on the strongest attackers.

X-Morph: Defense - European Assault

This add-on includes a new story-driven mini-campaign happening on the European front. The action takes place parallel to the main story campaign. It focuses on European military forces trying to repel the X-Morph invasion. Wreak havoc across Finland and Holland before concluding in an epic, destruction-fuelled showdown at the Eiffel Tower in France. European defense forces use new experimental weapons that force the X-Morph to adapt and improvise new defense tactics.

X-Morph: Defense - Survival Of The Fittest

This add-on includes a new Survival campaign with 5 maps specifically crafted for this adrenaline pumping game mode.
BRITAIN - Fight an endless enemy assault in a rain soaked maze of cottages and canals.
FINLAND - Winter is already here, but it's not the cold that is your worst enemy.
SOUTH AFRICA - A dense night is waiting to be lit up by countless enemy explosions.
NETHERLANDS - Survive as long as you can in this seemingly idyllic landscape.
FRANCE - A city labyrinth that is about to become a graveyard full of metallic corpses.

X-Morph: Defense - Last Bastion

This add-on includes a new story-driven mini-campaign which takes the players to the most remote locations in the world, where the last humans have taken refuge. The events take place on 4 islands, each with unique features. Chop down massive baobab trees in the Madagascar, slalom among the Moai on Easter Island, reshape the environment in sunny Indonesia and try not to melt in rivers of lava on Iceland. 4 new enemy types round up the package, ensuring that the X-Morph: Defense storyline gets the finale it deserves.

Enjoyable, polished Tower-defense/ShMUp

The Short: This time YOU play the alien invaders defending your Earth-mining 'core' from advanced human military forces in this near-perfect blend of tower defense and ShMUp. With fast, intuitive controls & AI, responsive ShMUp combat and strategic tower placement and path-manipulation winning or losing is all in your alien cyber-tendrils. Bullet Point Review - Fun. Crazy fun. - TD has logical, helpful upgrading and tech tree options without being nitpicky and overly-granular - ShMUp combat is fast and responsive. - WASD and mouse pair nicely for both modes; TD building and ShMUp combat. Neither feels 'tacked on'. - Default keybindings are logical and easily reached with you left hand; freeing your right to unload hell or build you defenses as needed. - Solid, driving music without being overbearing - Local Co-Op! - Skirmish/survival mode! - Plenty of missions and fairly priced DLC is you want more. VERDICT: If you like what you see in the trailer, buy it. X-Morph: Defense delivers. Here's hoping for this game to expand into a series.

An amazing game

Doesn't have any flaws for me. I especially like the design of the war machines you're up against, they make for unforgettable boss fights. It's hard but it still feels fair, offering a very good challenge.

More fun than expected

With a title like that, I didn't have much expectation going into X-Morph Defense. I'm about halfway through the campaign and having a good amount of fun. It's certainly a spectacle and always keeps you on your toes. The only downside would be the ability to collect debris to add to the building resources, which is instrumental in building an effective defense but feels a little like busy work when I'm trying to have fun shooting enemies or watch my towers do their work. Cheers to the devs, this is a fun, polished game.

Exceeded My Expectations

Honestly, I though this would just be some "B" rate (or lower) knock off game cashing in on the popularity of the tower defense genre. However, I was wrong. Very wrong. Not only is this game fun to play, it's actually well balanced. I highly recommend this title for fans of twin stick shooters or tower defense games. And if you enjoy both... buy it twice!

Good, but could be better

I must say, this game is very entertaining and fun to play for some time, but there are flaws that hold me back at giving it five stars. Firstly - no online multiplayer. I know why they didn't put it (as usual, they didn't design the code for this from the start and now it's too late and it would take too much time to make it work), but it's still a huge flaw. There is a workaround, but it needs gamepad and it's still a splitscreen (though can be played online). Too restrictive. Secondly, I hate that mechanic of collecting enemy remains to increase my resources. It would be partly ok if the remains would stay (all of them), and I could collect them (all of them) after the battle. But it doesn't work like that. If I don't gather them immediately then some are lost, as there seems to be a limit of how much enemy remains can be at once during a battle. I would rather choose to collect them during a battle only if I needed to build a tower fast (or just concentrate on fighting and collect them in between waves), and not be forced to do so just to not lose potential resources. Thirdly, the survival mode is frustratingly designed to show only initial enemy routes, but they change during a wave. I get my preparations and in the middle of a fight everything changes, new routes are made, new enemies come in, and I don't even have time (or even resources for that matter) to react to it, so my base gets overrun from unforeseen directions. Maybe it wouldn't be such a big issue if it would happen only in multiplayer, but when playing solo it's just bad. Having said that, it's still a good, solid game, that is addictive for some time. Worth a try if you like the genre.
