• Any base building games with some defense mechanics?

  And on that note, Dwarf Fortress also has marauding raiders and even full-scale invasions, and building paths full of traps to handle them...well, most of them...is a time-honored practice in that game. There's a LOT more to it than that, though. And it's definitely not a game for everyone. Source: about 2 years ago
