Quick answer

Start here

Your first sessions: roll, place turrets for path coverage, defend, upgrade only when the treehouse takes damage, and claim the group turret reward — friends add an official EXTRA LUCK bonus while rolling.

Step by step

What to do, in order

  1. Step 1. Launch Defend Your Treehouse! from its official Roblox page and complete the intro.
  2. Step 2. Use your first rolls and place your strongest turrets so they cover the path to the treehouse.
  3. Step 3. Start the first wave and watch where enemies leak; reposition or add turrets there.
  4. Step 4. Spend earned cash on treehouse upgrades when you take damage, or on rolls when your defense is stable.
  5. Step 5. Join the Sapling House Games group to claim the group turret reward, and invite a friend for the EXTRA LUCK bonus.

Fixes for common walls

  • Enemies reach the treehouse in early waves. Move turrets to cover the longest stretch of path and avoid clustering them all at one corner.
  • Not enough cash to upgrade. Play a few safer waves to bank income — income keeps accruing while you are offline, so short breaks help too.
Avoid these

Common mistakes

  • Rolling nonstop while your treehouse is taking damage — stabilize first, then roll.
  • Clustering every turret at one corner instead of covering the whole path.
  • Ignoring the group reward and the friends luck bonus — both are free progress.
FAQ

Player questions

What should I do in my first 10 minutes?

Roll, place for coverage, run the first waves, and upgrade only when you start taking treehouse damage. Then claim the group reward.

Do I need friends to progress?

No, but friends give an official EXTRA LUCK bonus while rolling, which speeds up getting powerful turrets.
