Nightfall: Kingdom Frontier TD (also known as Nightfall Kingdom Frontier) is a polished tower-defense + real-time strategy RPG hybrid developed by Fansipan Limited, available officially on Android and iOS. Here's the full breakdown:
Gameplay & Mechanics
Day–Night Cycle: Build your kingdom during the day—placing walls, towers, farms, barracks—then turn into Lord James VII at night to fight waves of enemies on horseback or foot.
Active Combat: Unlike static TD games, you actively lead fights and can revive as a spirit to rejoin the battle.
Deep Strategy: Deploy towers, archers, melee units, and special structures like explosive mills; upgrade troops and equipment via cards and loot.
Hero & Mount Progression: Unlock legendary heroes and mounts (e.g., beetles), each offering unique tactical perks in battle.
