Rift Riff is a tower defense game where players must defend their extractor from shadowy blob monsters by strategically placing defensive towers along the path.
The game is part of the resurgence of tower defense games, offering a 'remarkably forgiving' experience with features like full tower refunds, respawning at the start of waves, and collecting flowers for bonus juice.
Rift Riff stands out with its delightful music and charming gameplay, with the protagonist's antics reminiscent of the co-creator's previous work on the hidden object game, Hidden Folks.
Players can find Rift Riff on Steam, where it is available for around $6 or in a bundle with its closest cousin in the tower defense genre, Thronefall.
