Survive. Evolve. Dominate the Leaderboard.
A survival shooter inspired by classic roguelike games. In Layer Defender, the concept is simple, but the challenge is intense: stay alive. Face endless waves of cybersecurity threats, evolve your build with powerful upgrades, and master your chosen class.
You'll be dropped into an arena to face an onslaught of digital threats. Your only goals: level up, destroy enemies, and survive for as long as you can.
Annihilate endless waves of enemies before they overwhelm you. Each enemy represents a different cybersecurity threat type with unique behaviours and attack patterns. Move precisely to dodge incoming attacks while unleashing devastating firepower.
As you level up, you'll be offered a choice of powerful upgrades. Adapt your build in real-time to create devastating combinations of abilities. Stack upgrades strategically to maximise your survival chances and damage output.
Choose from four distinct player classes, each with unique base stats and game-changing special abilities. Find the class that matches your playstyle and master its strengths to dominate the arena.
Can you find the perfect build to outlast the competition and secure your spot on the leaderboard? Track your best runs, compare with other players, and prove you're the ultimate defender.
Four distinct classes, each with unique stats and special abilities. Master one or experiment with all!
High health and defence, slower movement. The Tank can absorb massive amounts of damage and holds the line against even the toughest enemy waves.
Fast movement and dodge abilities, lower health. The Speedster dances around enemy attacks with incredible mobility, perfect for players with precise mouse control.
Balanced stats with enhanced attack power. The Damage Dealer focuses on pure offensive capability, melting enemies before they become a threat.
Unique special ability with tactical advantages. The Specialist brings game-changing mechanics that can turn the tide when perfectly timed.
Each enemy wave brings different threat types with clever behaviours and attack patterns
Fast-moving basic threats that overwhelm through sheer numbers. They represent common malware infections that need constant vigilance.
Heavily armoured enemies that slowly advance and deal massive damage. These represent ransomware attacks that can cripple your defences.
Deceptive enemies that appear harmless but strike suddenly. They mimic safe patterns before revealing their true threat.
Overwhelming numbers that flood the arena from all directions. Survive the onslaught or be completely overwhelmed.
Unique, powerful enemies with unpredictable attack patterns. Each boss requires different strategies to defeat.
Lightning-fast threats that dart around your defences. They exploit every gap in your positioning and require precise mouse control to counter.
