How co-op works
Two players locally or up to four online control Tikimen on the same stage, turning trees into towers and spending collected coins and gems on construction and upgrades. Teams coordinate tower types and route coverage to keep each wave away from the Chibis.

The gameplay revolves around managing resources, choosing the right tower types, and reacting quickly as waves intensify. Coordination matters when multiple players are building and defending simultaneously, since every tower placement and upgrade decision affects the group's survival. The blend of strategy and action keeps sessions tense and rewarding.
You can play online or share a screen locally with a friend, and the game also supports split-screen and Steam Remote Play Together. Whether you're defending waves cooperatively or competing for the best score, the multiplayer setup encourages constant communication and smart teamwork under pressure.
