A Skibidi-style Roblox tower defense: drop cameramen, spiders and prototype units, hold the line against invading toilets. This site tracks the numbers behind the game.

Read →Cameraman Tower Defense is Roblox's straightest answer to the Skibidi question: what if the camera-headed guys fought back? You lead a squad of cameramen, speakers, TV men and stranger things against wave after wave of toilets, and the last thing standing between them and a wipe is one golden statue.
The game is by Aligators Games (aibat303e and iop_dev) and it is young and loud: created 26 August 2026, five million visits by mid-October, and patching so fast that update names are redeem codes (UPDATE3 is one). Player counts sit in the thousands at any hour.
The loop: spawn in the lobby, step on a platform to start a match, place units along the lanes, pour each wave's cash into upgrades, and keep toilets off the golden statue.

Before your first match
- Start from the lobby platform. Step on the glowing pad to load into a match; the side menu (Units, Shop, Trading) follows you into every screen.
- Drop two or three cheap units before wave 1. They cost in-match cash, not coins.
- Upgrade the unit that is actually doing damage. A single level 3 unit beats three level 1 units in the early waves.
- Watch the golden statue. It is the loss condition.
- Grab the free coins. Six working codes pay out right now, redeemed at the bottom of the Shop menu — the full list lives on the codes page.
- Play toward Quests. They unlock at 20+ wins and pay gems for the Spider Crate.
Pick your fight
| Setting | What it is | Who it is for |
|---|---|---|
| Easy mode | Softer waves, forgiving cash | First matches |
| Normal mode | The default curve | Learning placement |
| Insane mode | The sweat lobby | Maxed teams, boss practice |
| Solo / duo | Same maps, smaller squad | Players without a group |
Five maps rotate through the same modes — Cameraman HQ, Toilet City, Toilet Sea, Toilet HQ and Desert. Which map you load matters more than which mode: a wide-open desert lane forgives bad placement, a tight city street does not.
Straight answers
Is it free? Yes. Matches cost nothing; Robux buys coin bundles, packs, crates and speed passes.
Is it a Toilet Tower Defense clone? Same genre, same protagonist logic — units versus toilet waves — on its own models. The summon and crate screens will feel instantly familiar if you played TTD.
How many units are there? The in-game Index shows 30. Nine arrived in the October 10 Spider Update.
Do codes still work? Yes — we list the exact strings the in-game redeem box accepted, checked this week. Start with the codes page.
