Design & Path

Retro The Heights is a battle arena-style map taking place above the clouds. There are many artificial pillars and walkways spanning over the map that you could place ground towers on. There are also several battle paraphernalia, just like Sword Fight on the Heights. The path starts at a green spawn point and ends at a red spawn point.

Rewards

The game calculates how many Coins Coins, Gems Gem and you receive based on how many waves you survived and if you won a match. During periods of 100% more (Friday – Sunday), any earned is multiplied by 2x through the XP Boost modifier. The VIP gamepass also multiplies any earned by 1.25x through the VIP Boost modifier. These two boosts are additive. Regular boosts are multiplicative with other modifiers present on this map. Any rewards that end in a decimal point is rounded down, no matter the first figure of the leading decimal.

Strategy

Space in general is at a premium on this map. There are relatively few ground spots on this map, most of them being away from the path. Because of this, towers with larger placement footprints, like the Turret may not be that useful here. However, there is a lot of cliff spots on this map, making it optimal for towers like the Ranger. Due to their high range, they are also not as affected by placement spots being away from the path. The Military Base can be quite useful on this map as its units can attack enemies from the opposite side of the map. If you need to use the Farm and Military Base, make sure that these towers are on the pillar near the end of the map. Short-ranged towers, like the Slasher or Shotgunner, should not be used on this map given the distance between ground spots and the path. Due to the separation of cliff and ground towers, it may be hard to boost cliff towers with only one DJ Booth or Commander.
