Gameplay.
Similar to its predecessor and the original game, "Orcs Must Die 3!" is a variation on a tower defense game. The player takes the role of one of two apprentice war mages and are tasked to defend rifts from an onslaught of orc armies by using their player's weapons, special abilities, and setting traps. The game launched with 18 different levels.
Besides the standard Story game mode, the game includes an Endless mode and Weekly Challenges game mode. Unlike its predecessors, it includes a War Scenarios game mode, which tasks a player to defend against armies of orcs at a much larger scale (up to 1,000). This mode utilizes oversized traps, referred to as War Machines, to defend a castle and its rift from the larger armies.
The game allows for two-player cooperative multiplayer mode.
