Maze of Ancients

Earlier update: Flyers Walk the Maze (2026-11-02)

• Flying waves now follow your maze instead of flying over your walls.
• Seal the lane and flyers chew through a wall, just like walking creeps.
• Flyers still glide over rock outcrops.

Earlier update: Pick Your Fight (2026-11-02)

• Choose 1v1, 2v2 or 3v3 in the lobby: 1v1 fights down the middle lane, 2v2 on the two side lanes, 3v3 on all three
• Lanes nobody plays are sealed under grassy and ash ridges
• No more bots: every seat is a real player, and the siege starts when the teams are full
• Smaller modes give each ancient less hp so matches stay quick
• Summon income is tamer: sends pay back slower and the income cap grows +1 a wave

Earlier update: Pricey Bosses (2026-11-02)

• Bosses are now a big investment: Ogre Warlord 350g, Lich Queen 400g, Void Stalker 450g, Red Dragon 500g, each tougher, and a lane can summon only one boss per second. Fixed a boss banner crash.

Earlier update: Turbo Vote, Orc Slow, Even Rocks (2026-11-02)

• Turbo vote opens for the first 30 seconds of a siege with a countdown, then disappears if it doesn't pass. Orc's Storm Shaman now slows creeps 40% for 2s, so every class has a slow and a reveal. Rock shelves raised from 18 to 24 per lane half and spread evenly front to back.

Earlier update: Badges & Trailer (2026-11-02)

• 11 badges to earn, from your first wall to destroying the enemy ancient. Each one lands as a trophy on your den wall. Plus double the rock outcrops in every lane for wilder mazes, and legendary hero skins.

• @yujiro · loved it · 2026-11-02 · played 1 min: “I really wanted to play this game, but I couldn't get started because there were no other players online. Adding bot matches would be great so players like me can still enjoy the game and practice even when no one else is around.”
