A Grand Slam game, a complete refresher to the tower defense genre, absolutely hit all the marks for me. A little sarcasm and comedy, an interesting twist on human fate, and gameplay that is immediately engaging and ramps up quickly. Some of the best parts for me include "No Hopes" where you can greatly modify the gameplay by enabling difficulty modifiers and, in various combinations, create a completely different experience. I was super fortunate and got access to the beta for a bit as well as the playtest weekend. I saw some discussion in the game's official Discord during the playtest weekend, and the developers seemed very engaged and willing to make the game the best experience for players possible. I came away from that chomping at the bit for a chance to own uninterrupted access to the game and with excitement for the possible future of the game, as the roadmap shows some pretty awesome potential that I cannot wait to see come to fruition. Now, not to take away from my overall glowing review, the store page said there would be Steam Leaderboards, but I don't see that feature anywhere in the game currently, and while I don't think it is critical to the game play at all, as I can still go into discord and dunk on my friends manually, it would be cool to have something to show off what I can do passively.

I am giving this game a positive review in part due to the price. If it were more expensive I would have expected far better art/UI and just overall polish. I know it is a small team and early access, but those things did immediately stand out. Having said that, I am glad I bought the game. The gameplay loop quickly got me hooked on upgrading the Armory and Research and unlocking new things. I am a sucker for progress, unlocks, prestige and all that crap. I was looking for a game where I can just blow off steam after work without being stressed out or PVPing and this is scratching that itch for me. Kinda like VS but I like the power creep and progression this has for me to chase
Genuinely a fun and addicting game, at over 300 hours in im enjoying grinding up levels to get some sweet bonuses. Cant wait for the new content to drop, and new specs!!
Fun tower defense game, though the initial learning is a bit rough because everything is thrown at you at once, it's ultimately pretty simple. My only complaints are the menu music being at too loud a default volume, and how hard it can be to locate those guys that damage all of your buildings. (I've spent the entire timer looking and still failed to find it, multiple times.) It could use some real death animations, and more impressive/notable animations in general. As it is, it isn't super impressive, but it is definitely a solid tower defense game and the amount of upgrades and modifiers should keep it interesting in my free time.
Im pretty sure the other reviews are fake, i got tempted in by my love of wave defence / tower defence. And the reviews high play times (some have 100s of hours in the week since release). But there is no way people played it this much, its tower defence with 3 preset locations you can place the tower, and its not a choice, you can build all 3. The rest of the game is mashing the 1 - 9 keys to cast abilities. Some ability sets are "harder" then others, but that doesn't mean you have to be more skilled to use it, the meta progression is power creep, so you have to level up to be able to use them (but the easy ones presumably scale with the meta progression too so why would you if the goal is to get further next time?)
Quite chaotic UI. No / bad tutorial. Progression seems to be focused around deleting your permanent progression for a marginal permanent permanent gain. Quite frankly: feels terrible to play. Much better games in the genre to spend your time and money on.

I love games with a lot of progression that I can sink time into at my own pace. I don’t care too much about amazing graphics or anything, which this game certainly does not have, as long as the gameplay is fun and I have goals to unlock. There are already a ton of things to unlock here and from the roadmap post it sounds like there will be even more. I don’t usually care enough to review games but was happy with how cheap this game was for the amount of progression there already is in Early access so what the hell. I doubt it is for everyone but certainly will have a good niche audience I think. Oh and Val gave me some Claptrap vibes which always gives me some great memories. I am sure there are plenty of people that will hate her, but I liked the humor it adds. Might get old after a while, will see.
