Tiny Tactics

Having just gotten the last achievement currently available for this game I have to say: I clearly greatly enjoyed it. I have a hard time describing specific things that make this game so much fun though. If I must credit anything it is the game's simplicity and focus. This game has very little to distract from a satisfying core tower defense loop. Refresh the shop, pick the right person, place them in the right place. There's enough complexity in the ways the many towers interact to maintain a nice fast flow state effect without distractions to break you out of said loop. On top of that the towers here are characters which are juuuuust personable enough to be memorable without being so overdesigned as to get in the way of the core gameplay. I wouldn't say Tiny Tactics is, or is trying to be, perfect. Honestly, despite usually feeling the other way, this is the rare game I would LOVE to see a sequel to. The foundation here is rock solid. But there are many tweaks, balances, level design details, and quality of life improvements that could push this base up to "one of the indie greats" levels quite reasonably. If someone ever does make a sequel though I beg you to retain as many of the characters as you can, I've grown rather attached to a lot of them!
