Monsters are Coming!

Fun game but crashing 2 hours into a run with no ability to save and getting no credit is a deal breaker. It's also frustrating how little the game explains core mechanics.

⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4/5) Downloaded a monster game. Turns out my free time was the real monster. Monster Are Coming! nails the "one more run" addiction. You’ll start a quick session, get hooked on upgrades, chase the perfect build, and somehow lose hours. The pixel art is charming, the chaos is fun, and the gameplay feels smooth. It doesn’t reinvent the genre, but it delivers the satisfying loop of becoming overpowered before getting humbled. More maps and monster variety would help, but if you enjoy roguelites or survivor-style games, this is an easy recommendation. Pros: ✅ Addictive gameplay loop ✅ Fun upgrades ✅ Endless "one more run" moments Cons: ❌ Lost my sleep schedule ❌ Monsters weren’t the real threat Recommended. 8.5/10 (★★★★☆) Achievement Unlocked: "I’ll Stop After This Run" — Failed Successfully.

Занимательная игрушка. Можно выбрать разные стратегии. Интересные испытания. Надеюсь на дальнейшее развитие, добавление нового контента. <3

So there is good and bad, the good is the mechanics are fun, plenty of different builds between characters, bases, and base addons and more. Once you find that right build its pretty satisfying. Now the bad, you can't save partway through a session, at least not that I could find. If you have a good run it can last for hours, which is cool but a little bit of a commitment. And it really sucks when you find a great build and play for about 3 hours in one run and then the game crashes and you lose all your progress. which isn't surprising because you can add alot to your base, I have a 4080 super and it still crashed on me. If they did find a way to fix that then this would be 8/10 but with the crash im giving it a 6/10

Absolutely lovely gem. Mix of bullet-hell, tower-defence and rogue-like.

Feels repetative very quickly, started getting bored after my third of fourth run. It might be worth it on sale.

Let me start with stating this game has issues. randomly unable to replace buildings with other buildings (not tombstones). Random soft locks. Bosses sometimes spawn below the ground and untargetable by the hero or the city. By themselves I am fine with these issues, however, since the game only saves the game between runs, you can easily throw away an hour of progress. This is very frustrating when focusing for a particular unlock. I will the game terms were explained better (it took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out the "trail" was the resources you where currently carrying). Now the good. All the townhalls are unique. A lot of the towers are unique. Most of the weapons are fun and feel viable on normal. It feels like every build is viable on normal difficulty (I have not tried every combination). The game is fun, and balancing the upgrades between the hero and city keeps things fresh. I would recommend grabbing the game on sale. I feel that the DLC doesn't add that much to the base game and can be skipped.

While I love the artstyle, the game mechanics, the weapons, the pace, and the variety of the game, there are two main reasons why I would not recommend the game and why I stopped playing: 1. There is no mid-run save option. I have kids and sometimes you gotta stop playing but it hurts to end your successful run because of it. 2. The game is unstable in the end game. Especially on endless, when you really found a good build (which is what these types of games are about IMO), you play for 2h and then lose all your progress to a crash. Combined with the lack of auto-save mid-run, this makes the game unplayable for me. I appreciate the developers accepting bug reports on Steam and all, but having to worry about your game crashing and you losing all your progress sucks the fun out of it entirely :( I won't pick it up again unless there's autosave.

Very fun but wish there were some free DLCs

Very well executed Tower Defense concept with some nifty and novel ideas
