Desperate Place is a sci‑fi base‑building tower defense game set in the year EC3040. While en route to the habitable world KOI‑7711.01, your colony ship is struck by a massive ion wave from a red giant, rupturing the helium‑3 fuel stores and forcing an emergency landing on an uncharted planet. To repair the ship and restore fuel you must scavenge helium‑3 from the surface - but every time you bring resources back, hostile native creatures attack, so you must quickly erect a temporary base and hold them off.
