Gem TD

Ranked #971 in Games, #28,590 overall

There's both a flash version of gem td, and a set of really popular custom maps for warcraft 3. You build a maze of gemstones and pick one every round... the rest all turn into blocking rocks. A new game of warcraft Gem TD is played every minute or two on Blizzard's battle net!

Scroll farther down this page to see wc3 gem td strategy tips, map downloads and a link to the flash version webpage.

Not as good as the real thing.

Note that this version was not made by the same guy! It's a remade and he even asks for donations/ads without giving any credit to the original creators. I hate people like that. :(

Always remember to put this map on race mode. Or else you have to wait for everyone else ot kill things in BK's Gem TD warcraft map. Some long mazes can take forever! Gem strategy guides coming right up, check out these other maps too:

Helpful Hints

Don't forget to upgrade your gem quality! You can do this at your mine, for a small amount of gold. You can also buy lives there... and you should buy them in advance! They take time to research. You don't have time to research new lives from leaks in later Gem TD levels.


You can "downgrade" your random gems by one quality when choosing which to place. This is key to making several of the Gem TD combinations, especially later when many of the randoms you'll be getting are perfect gems. You can view them all in your mine area.

Don't build an amethyst gem tower the first round! They only attack air monsters. This happens surprisingly often with new players in gem td maps. Be sure to only place them along the path where flying creatures run.


Don't worry about killing the gem td damage test. It's not very fun, just watch a youtube video and pretend you did it instead. Ancient runes are a huge help if you want to try anyways. Scroll down for more Gem TD strategy tips from other players.
