Bardbarian

Bardbarian is a fantasy tower defense game, primarily an action game with minor strategy elements. The player takes the role of Brad, a hero and local barbarian for hire, who awakes to the sounds of his town under siege. Brad, however, has grown tired of the usual lifestyle of XP grinding, saving useless non-player characters (NPCs), and living only to destroy. This time, Brad has decided to use his misplaced crafting skills to fashion a lute out of an old war axe. Now he faces the world as a bard, armed with lute in hand and 70s rock music ballads, which is quite a feat without an electric guitar.

The iOS version is commercial. The Android version is free, but there is also a commercial Golden Axe Edition without advertisements or in-app purchases. PC (Win/Mac) edition removes IAP and adds new crossover units like Octodad.
