'The Deadly Tower of Monsters' (ALL) Gets Survival Mode On PC

by Rainier on Oct. 5, 2016 @ 7:41 a.m. PDT

The Deadly Tower of Monsters is an action-based adventure oozing with B-movie charm.

WHO IS DICK STARSPEED?! SCARLET NOVA - THE SPACE DIVA WITH A CHECKERED PAST - AND INTRODUCING...THE ROBOT! AMAZING ADVENTURES! STRANGE DRAMA! AND MORE AWAIT IN...THE DEADLY TOWER OF MONSTERS!

MAROONED ON THE DESOLATE PLANET GRAVORIA, THE TRIO OF ADVENTURERS FIND THEIR ONLY METHOD OF ESCAPE AWAITS AT THE TOP OF A TOWER - A TOWER RENOWNED FOR ITS DEADLINESS AND ITS PROPENSITY TO BE FILLED WITH MONSTERS! LIZARD-MEN! UFOS! NUCLEAR ANTS! DINOSAURS! ROBOT MONKEYS! ALL OF THESE HORRORS AWAIT OUR INTREPID ADVENTURERS AS THEY ASCEND THE DEADLY TOWER. WILL THEY AVOID THEIR OWN DOOM?

Gaze at the incredible realism Monsterama vision provides for all the Nuclear Ants, Lizard Men, and the countless other enemies you'll face. 

The single-player adventure has another fun mechanic - the player's progress up the tower stays visible the entire time the player climbs far into the reaches of outer space. Not to mention all the enemies that can climb/fly up the tower to attack you from below; and hey - sometimes if you get stuck, the only way up is to fall down - freefall that is. Embrace gravity and freefall to find new paths, explore hidden areas, or if you just really miss terra firma.


The Deadly Tower of Monsters has just received a new Survival Mode (PC version only) that's available now!

The mode begins on a staging platform where players can choose characters, switch weapons, or purchase new weapons, abilities, or health. From there, they'll freefall down to another platform where they must rely on their extensive knowledge of action choreography to whack, zap, disintegrate, etc... a wave of ghastly enemies and survive perilous environmental hazards. After each wave, players will return to the staging platform to regroup and refuel with gold obtained by enemy drops and flying through hoops during freefalls. Waves will progressively get harder, so strategizing and spending gold wisely is the key to outlasting each round.

The Deadly Tower of Monsters is this week's Midweek Madness on Steam, so ACE Team's latest sci-fi action extravaganza is currently available with a 66% discount until Oct. 7!
