AOD: Art Of Defense
About the Game
AOD: Art Of Defense is a post-apocalyptic tower defense strategy game from Sateda. You command the A.O.D. squad in a world damaged by nuclear wars. Your objective centers on the search for the Inola project while you defend settlements from Mr. Ivil's forces.
๐ก๏ธ Your Base Is the Main Priority
Each defense mission revolves around protecting your base from enemy waves.
You can:
- Place defensive towers.
- Upgrade existing defenses.
- Use tanks and machine guns.
- Deploy air-defense systems.
- Collect cards for tower upgrades.
- Use special weapons during difficult situations.
- Develop your available heroes.
The official game information describes the battles as real-time tower-defense encounters.
๐๏ธ Build Your Defense Around the Battlefield
Tower placement matters because enemy forces follow routes across the battlefield.
You need to choose suitable locations for your defensive structures before enemy waves reach your base. The available arsenal includes tanks, miniguns, air-defense systems and other military defenses.
The game lists more than 1,000 tower upgrades. It also provides hundreds of cards for individual tower development.
This gives you two progression paths to consider: improve your existing defenses and collect cards that support your tower development.
๐บ๏ธ A Large Campaign Map
The official game information lists more than 500 sectors across different battle locations.
The environments range from:
- Small abandoned villages
- Ruined settlements
- Large abandoned cities
- Other post-apocalyptic combat areas
Gameplay footage also shows a global map where you can plan upcoming battles and capture territories.
๐ฆธ Six Heroes With RPG Progression
Your defensive setup is not limited to stationary structures.
AOD: Art Of Defense has six heroes that you can unlock and level up. Hero development forms part of the game's RPG system. The official listing also describes hero skill and equipment upgrades.
You therefore have more progression choices than simply upgrading towers after each battle.
๐ฅ When Normal Defenses Are Not Enough
The game gives you several high-powered battlefield abilities.
The documented arsenal includes:
- Nuclear bombs
- Ionic satellite attacks
- Ballistic barrages
- Tactical aviation
- Other boosters
These weapons give you another way to deal with enemy groups during a defense mission.
๐ซ๏ธ Three Special Defense Modes
The game has three named tower-defense modes:
- Escape
- Fog
- Survival
The current Google Play listing describes these as escape, fog of war, and extreme survival.
These modes give the campaign different defensive conditions instead of relying only on standard wave battles.
๐ฏ What You Need to Watch During a Battle
A good defense starts before the enemy reaches your base.
Keep these points in mind:
- Study the available route before placing your towers.
- Use suitable defensive structures for the battlefield.
- Improve important towers instead of spreading every resource too thin.
- Use your heroes as part of your overall defensive setup.
- Keep powerful attacks available for difficult enemy waves.
- Check your upgrade cards as your tower progression develops.
