Game Master's Console
YOU are the Game Master. Arm traps and stack eliminations on AI heroes.
Reverse trap-defense gauntlet: you control a deadly death course and AI heroes sprint through it. Arm floor spikes, crushers, laser walls and rolling boulders to eliminate runners before they reach the exit.

Game Master's Console flips tower defense on its head — you are the villainous Game Master watching heroes sprint straight through your death course. Tap slots 1, 2 and 3 to fire instant traps like floor spikes, The Crusher and TNT barrels, or hold for continuous laser, flame and cryo beams that drain energy while active. Chain multi-kills into an 8x combo multiplier across eight themed environments, face eight runner archetypes including Armored Juggernauts and Analyst Specialists, and survive the endless gauntlet with a score-based difficulty ramp.
How to Play
Press 1, 2 or 3 to trigger the trap in each slot. Instant traps (spikes, crusher, boulders, TNT) fire on press; continuous traps (laser, flame, cryo) run while held and drain your energy gauge, which recharges on its own. Click or tap trap zones with mouse or touch. A wave ends with 5 escaped runners — chain kills fast to build the 8x multiplier before the score-based difficulty ramp overtakes you.
