Design & Path

Summer Castle takes places on the beach of an oversized island. The playable area of the map only contains two sand castles, one with leaves and one with a bucket on top, and a few small sand cliffs. Outside the playable area, multiple colorful buckets and shovels can be seen. There are also a few additional sand castles in the distance, one of which is destroyed. On one side of the map, a recliner can be seen with a cooler containing sodas on the side. Multiple palm trees can be found on one side of the non-playable area while the other is covered in water.

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

The path in this path is quite long (being even longer than Polluted Wasteland II), meaning only towers with the highest of ranges can actually cover all of it. This makes high range towers overall pretty effective here. While mostly cliff towers like the Ranger, some high range towers like the Necromancer or Turret can also be used. The center of the map is the ideal spot for towers, as it allows for good path coverage and is close to two cliff spots. As this map contains multiple paths placed close to each other, this allows for units which become stationary when attacking to attack enemies which while close physically, are pretty far on the path, allowing them to survive for longer. Examples of such units include the Crook Boss goons or Mercenary Base mercenaries.
