Off the Clock Hermit · Sep 4, 2026
A Western tower defense. Build houses, post Cowboys in and on the windows and rooftops, arm them, and hold the street against ever stronger hordes of walking dead. Every run ends, but the Fortitude you earn buys permanent upgrades, so the next night starts a little less hopeless.
