  "shortDescription": "Choke Point: Tower Defense is a tower defense strategy game for iPhone and iPad from Scarlet Aurora Interactive LLC. Every tower is also a wall: bend the Machines’ route through a choke point and make it hold, or defend one core from every direction in Stronghold. Coming November 2026.",
  "description": "Choke Point: Tower Defense is a tower defense strategy game for iPhone and iPad in which every tower you build is also a wall. Ground Machines always take the shortest open route to your Firewall and re-plan it the moment you place a tower, so where you build decides where they walk and which of your guns get to fire. You can bend the route as far as you like, but you can never seal it.\n\nEach battlefield has a marked choke point. Run the route through it and it goes live: ground kills there charge Choke Control, which pays out Supplies such as Airstrike, Flash Freeze and Time Rewind. Ten towers unlock as the waves climb, from the Sentry Post to the Incinerator, and upgrade up to level 4.\n\nThe Wave Defense campaign runs across seven battlefields, from Open Field to Evacuation. Later fields add a second entrance, blast gates you switch mid-wave, tiered ground, seismic crossings and a command core that moves, and every battlefield has its own Mega Boss. The in-game Field Guide documents fourteen kinds of Machines, four bosses and seven Mega Bosses in Wave Defense; Stronghold adds a Mega Boss on each of its four levels. Play on Relaxed, Normal, or Hard, or learn the basics in Training.\n\nStronghold is the second front: one fortress core in an open arena fires on its own while Machines close in from every side. Pick one of five starting cores (Sentry, Arc, Mortar, Lance, and Incinerator), draft upgrades as the waves climb, and fire Repulse and Siege Shot yourself. Four levels, Core Perimeter, Foundry, Relay Yard, and Fragment Works, run 77 waves each, with their own armor trait, a signature enemy and a Mega Boss. Play on Relaxed, Standard, or Hard, earn medals that unlock Workshop perks, and keep going in Endless or take on the Daily Defense, with Game Center leaderboards for both.\n\nChoke Point: Tower Defense is made by Scarlet Aurora Interactive LLC, an independent game studio in Las Vegas, Nevada.",
