38 Great Games Like Tower Escape

Our experts have spent time searching for great games similar to Tower Escape and have found the following:

Tower Escape is a strategy survival game that turns the tower defence format on its head: rather than placing defences for the onrushing enemies, you pick the enemies and guide them to safety. You recruit a team of minions with different abilities and then set a path through the dungeon for them to (hopefully) collect powerful gems and relics that make it to the other side.

Unfortunately, Tower Escape is not available on Android, Mac, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S or iOS. However, we recommend the following games that offer a similar experience or theme:
