Trailer
See ARIA in action. Watch what happens when every rewind choice hurts.
How It Plays
Build Your Defense
Place towers on neon grids. Each one earns XP and levels up mid-match.
Fight & Adapt
22 enemy types with unique traits. Use ARIA’s 6 abilities to turn the tide.
Rewind & Risk
Reprise rolls time back up to 8 seconds—but corruption creeps into your defenses. Each corrupted tower rolls a unique effect from a pool of 15, ranging from crippling glitches to dangerous power spikes. Every rewind is a gamble.
What Sets It Apart
Time Rewind with Consequences
Reprise rolls back the entire battlefield—but corrupts your towers with unpredictable effects. Targeting glitches, ghost projectiles, stat spikes, split fire—15 effects across three categories. Every rewind reshapes your defense.
