Backstory
The Snare Trap comes from an older school of farm defence: no explosions, no science, no drama. Just a loop of rope, a spring, and a chicken that stepped exactly where it should not have. The loop snaps shut around the chicken and holds it there — stunned, suspended, and very annoyed — for a good long while.
It does no damage. It does not need to. The snare is a timeout, not a knockout: it takes one chicken out of the fight long enough for every other defence on the board to notice it, and the flock has learned that a snared chicken is a chicken with time to think. The thinking never helps.
Its weakness is honest: one target at a time, no damage of its own. Sharper Traps makes the hold longer, and Trapper’s Kit adds +50% to the family business. Place snares where a single chicken matters — on boss lanes, in front of the damage line, at the door — and let the rope do the talking.
What it’s good at
Stops one chicken for a good while — a timeout, not a knockout.

Power-ups & upgrade paths
📈 Perks that boost it
Sharper Traps, Rapid Fire
✨ Relic synergy
Trapper’s Kit — traps deal +50% damage.
🔱 SUPER fusion
Eight of this defence fuse into one SUPER unit — x10 damage and double lifetime. Only one SUPER on the board at a time; extra sets feed it to power it up.
🔧 Upgrades & buffs
Hover a tower and press U for +25 seconds of lifetime per level. Overclock boosts all damage and fire rate by 50% for 25 seconds, and when the door drops below 15% HP every tower fires 25% faster. Press H for buff mode — towers beside a SUPER boost it 5% each.
Durability
💥 Smash hits
3 hits before it falls apart. 3 smash hits and the loop finally lets go.
🍗 Who smashes it
Demolition Drumsticks take 50–75% of a structure’s max HP per swing, and Heavy Metal Chickens and Bureaucrat Elites knock things down too.
☢️ Friendly fire
Your own Nuke and explosive chain reactions don’t care whose side it’s on — keep fragile towers out of the blast radius.
