Stick War Legacy

Stick War Legacy turns the classic stick-figure war into a lane-defence arcade game. Your hero carries a sword and a crossbow and attacks automatically — your job is positioning: move him into the right lane, keep him alive, and stop the enemy wave before it reaches your statue.

Controls

• Move: arrow keys or A / D — tap the on-screen controls on touch devices.
• Attack: automatic. Your hero swings and shoots whatever is in range.
• Special abilities: use the ability buttons as they charge — save them for a crowded wave rather than spending them early.

How to play

Each round sends progressively tougher stickman troops at your position. Gold earned in battle funds upgrades and extra units, so the decision is always the same: reinforce now for safety, or save for a stronger late game. Hold the line, push the lane when the enemy is committed elsewhere, and destroy their statue to win.

Tips

• Miners are the engine of your army — protecting your gold income beats buying one extra soldier early.
• Retreat when health drops instead of trading a hero for a single grunt; you respawn slower than they do.
• Crossbow range is your friend: kite archers backwards while shooting rather than standing in a melee.
• Spend abilities on grouped waves. A well-timed area attack clears more than three separate duels.
