Wool at the Gates is a minimalist tactical base defense game where you fight as a hero, command troops, and build powerful class synergies.

Fortify your city against relentless waves of invading sheep. Inspired by games like Thronefall, SNKRX, and Warcraft III, Wool at the Gates blends strategic base building with fast-paced hero combat and deep class synergy systems that evolve across each run. Base Building: Construct and upgrade towers, walls, barracks, and economy structures to strengthen your defenses. Limited build slots mean every choice matters. Round-Based Strategy: Plan your defenses during calm build phases, then survive increasingly difficult waves of enemies.
Class Synergies: Combine building types to unlock powerful auto-battler-inspired class bonuses and define your playstyle. Faction Perks: Choose between Human, Orc, and Elf structures to unlock unique faction-specific upgrades and strategies. Real-Time Combat: Fight alongside your army as a powerful hero, using abilities and positioning to hold the line during chaotic battles. Wool at the Gates is so good it just needs more of everything. Glad it’s early access, though. Inject this straight into your veins.
You’re really hoping for a ton of new content throughout early access. You also kind of wish there was an account leveling system where it would slowly drip-feed new towers, characters, and perks as you leveled up rather than allowing you to purchase them in Wool at the Gates, because there’s no real mystery as to what’s available. Because of that, the unlockables feel a bit underwhelming. But hopefully a lot more gets added. You could see yourself playing this for days and days if enough stuff is added—and that’s saying something, considering your horrible attention span.
