Slop Tower Defense field guide

Plan the craft before spending the roster

Inspect the recipe in your current client and protect the units your team needs. The official description still lists crafting; the September 19 creator workflow below is historical reported evidence, not a verified current recipe.

What this guide can establish

Source review does not turn an older demonstration into a current gameplay test. Follow the live client for requirements and quantities.

  • OFFICIAL — The current game description still lists summoning, crafting and defending; no exact numerical recipe or progression path is supplied.
  • REPORTED — September 9 beginner and/or September 19 crafting narration supports the dated examples and planning checklist.
  • UNKNOWN — Current ingredient quantities, costs, unlocks, location, evolution/variant rules, raid mechanics and rates are not independently verified.

Follow the recipe shown in your game

  1. Locate Crafting in your current client and choose the target. The lobby location was shown in the September 19 creator walkthrough; today’s exact location and unlock requirement are not independently confirmed.
  2. Compare required units, materials and currencies with your inventory. Record only the current displayed requirements.
  3. Check whether a required unit is locked. MeddysonTD’s crafting walkthrough includes unlocking needed ingredients before crafting.
  4. If the game rejects an equipped ingredient, unequip it and review the recipe again. The same walkthrough shows this during the Titanic Cyborg Cat craft.
  5. Before confirming, check that consuming the ingredients will leave you with a usable team.
  6. After crafting, inspect the resulting unit and its current role/stat card rather than assuming it inherited every property of the ingredients.

Do not discard duplicates blindly

The demonstration required earlier units and collected materials to reach a later craft. That makes “duplicate” different from “useless”: it may be part of a target you have not checked yet.

Our planning suggestion is to write down the target, ingredient deficits and replacement cost of any equipped unit. This avoids treating every spare unit as automatically safe to trade.

Variants and recipes on hold

No Shiny/Void conversion rule, success chance or full numerical recipe is published here. Spoken figures and variant speculation are not enough to certify those rules. Read the current game recipe before committing.

Crafting requirements can change. The source is a dated demonstration, not a live recipe database.
