Rock of ages - an unusual mix of racing, tower defense and platforming. The emphasis is on the multiplayer component, but there is also a single player game with a small campaign against computer intelligence.
Battles take place on huge maps with multiple options for landscapes and structures, for example, with hollows along the edges of the territory or a hill in the middle. On opposite edges of the map there are two strongholds of the warring parties. Your goal is to destroy the base before your opponent. You need to destroy the citadel with a hefty stone boulder, which you will roll towards the enemy's possessions. While you are driving a boulder, the other player must work out tactics and build defenses to stop the boulder or direct it to the other side of the main building.
In total, there will be about 30 types of buildings and control units at your disposal. You can build with a sufficient amount of currency - gold, collecting it with a stone on your turn for destroying enemy fortifications and collecting coins on the ground on the way to the barricades. All defensive structures available for purchase, including living units, are divided into three types: towers, moving soldiers and legendary mobs. Among the variety of towers, there are such strange units as suicide elephants, a herd of cows, etc. Among the legendaries that can be found on the map, they cannot be recruited at the base, there is a giant Heavenly Bull. It is much larger than a boulder, so it can handle it easily..
The Rock of Ages skin and menu design change depending on the era in which the battle is taking place. You will visit times like these: Romanticism, Renaissance, Roccoco, Gothic and many others.
