How to play
Place towers and walls on the grid to build a long maze. Enemies always take the shortest route to your crystal core — the longer the route, the longer your towers can shoot. You can never block the path completely.
After each wave choose one of three reward cards: unlock new towers, boost damage, earn interest, or grab a rare relic. Every run plays differently.
Towers
- Arrow – fast single shots, hits flying enemies.
- Cannon – splash damage against groups.
- Frost – slows everything it hits.
- Tesla – lightning that chains between enemies.
- Sniper – huge range, targets the strongest enemy.
- Wall – cheap blocker for shaping your maze.
Features
- 20 waves with three different bosses, then an endless mode.
- 26 reward cards from common to epic.
- Elite enemies with shields, regeneration, haste or splitting.
- Your run is saved automatically before every wave.
- Permanent upgrades bought with crystals between runs.
- Four worlds: Forest, Desert, Ice Peaks and Space.
Frequently asked questions
Is Maze Keepers free?
Yes. You can play the full game in your browser for free, without an account or download.
Can I block the enemies completely?
No. A tower or wall can only be placed if a path from the portal to the core still exists, so the challenge is making that path as long as possible.
Do I keep anything after losing?
Yes. Every run earns crystals that buy permanent upgrades such as more starting gold, extra lives and card rerolls.
