Bloons is free and also tower defense/offense so maybe that's up your alley.
Otherwise, see post above for quality games.

Defender Quest is the best traditional Tower Defense and Immortal Defense is the only one that really does anything unique.

Aviary Attorney, he means. It released during one of the summer sales but lacked the last case.
So is it still unfinished or did they release it later on?

e: My favorite TDs are Orcs Must Die (and the sequel) and Dungeon Warfare, both definitely worth a look.

Dungeon Defenders is fun as hell with a friend and Iron Brigade is pretty decent if you want to tower defense but also kill things directly yourself.

I'll second defenders quest. And since others are offering suggestions that have td elements but aren't strictly tower defense, ill also recommend checking out dungeon of the endless

Koei-Tecmo is having a sale on Gust games. Are the Nights of Azure and Atelier Sophie ports at least competent?

Edit: I have the PS4 versions of both games, so if they are inferior to those, I'm not going to double-dip.

You cheated not only the game, but yourself.
But most of all, you cheated BABA

How is Maia? It looks like sims in a space colony, and I know the reviews say mixed, but the developer's also still working on it, so... has the dude fixed it at all?

I backed it on Kickstarter six years ago and I wouldn't even call it playable at this point.

Actually I take back what I said about Immortal Defense being the only TD that does something unique, I forgot about Dungeon of the Endless which is a very good game that's successfully half roguelike and half tower defense and manages to somehow be a good representation of both genres.

Seconding what others have said here:
Defender's Quest is one of the best pure TD games. I cant vouch for Immortal Defense though having never played it.

I would say that Dungeon of the Endless is easily my favorite of the bunch, but it isn't a traditional TD by any stretch so if you are specifically in the market for a TD, it might not fit the bill (I would say play it anyway because you will probably like it and want to put some time in with it eventually)

I can tune a fish.
I feel a little better knowing I'm not the only one that gives goofy, arbitrary names to categories instead of straightforward boring stuff.

I actually just got done finally organizing the silly number of indie platformers on my list last night, though it was occasionally really annoying trying to discern between pure platformers and puzzle platformers.

It's of a different sort, but it's definitely a good choice. Anomaly Defenders is also decent.

There's also this game X-Morph: Defense that's going to come out in the near future. Seems neat.

Well, I hope it's balanced well between the shooting and planning. I tend to prefer less active play and watching my towers do the dirty work with that genre.

It's in beta right now. From what I've seen there are some pretty good changes. I'm just looking forward to 10 acts and not having to run through the game 3 times on every character.

Anybody remember that Social Interaction Trainer game where you had to pay the dev money in a "silent auction" to unlock an achievement?

He's now melting down, has set the game price to $200 and is removing his games from Steam because they won't let him put a link to his patreon in them.

i'm not really sure what he's complaining about, it's a very safe legal stance to take. deny all links just in case someone tries to sneak in something nasty. i mean, your product's page can already be linked to various offsites in the product info column, just talk up your patreon on the game's homepage

He's complaining about it because he's the type of person to use "cucks" unironically. Also the type of person that doesn't realize he can put the Patreon link in one of the other accepted links.
