Android / Tower defense
Pick your chokepoint.
Every tower-defense game asks a different question. Do you want to outplay a rival, march through a campaign, or tune a defense that never ends? Start with the answer.
Pick by play style
Which kind of defender are you?
Tower Rush
You want a live opponent to react to, not just a script to beat.

Tower Rush: a defense with a rival
Solar Forge Games describes real-time battles on a shared battlefield, where defending sits alongside supporting your own troops. That makes it a different proposition from a campaign of fixed enemy waves.
Try it if reacting to another player sounds more fun than perfecting a solo level. Learn the tutorial first, and check the current store page for connection requirements and purchase details.

Quick habits
Three habits that carry over
General advice for the genre. Each game handles details its own way.
Trace the route.
Spot entrances, bends and exits before spending anything.
Cover first, upgrade second.
Good placement often matters as much as a stronger tower.
Read the enemy.
Check what each enemy type does before rebuilding everything.
