It's alright. Despite the screenshots and store tags hinting at some sort of a Stronghold / They Are Billions style gameplay, the primary rule of the game restricts a lot of building freedom: each block is as strong as it is tall. That means you don't get to make fancy expansive castles; you're going to want awkwardly tall and thin skyscraper walls blocking off tiny chokepoints, and rickety towers designed to hold your mandatorily tall resource collectors using the least resources possible. Since you're heavily limited by resource gain over time, and the game's main levels don't randomize any aspect (notably incoming enemy directions and map features), you're going to have an optimal walling setup in each level. Thus, this game is actually a puzzle game about figuring out the build order and optimal block count to beat each map. Building the cool castles found in the store's screenshots and the premade bases in the campaign ends up being a total waste of resources; instead, most of your freedom is in what kind of units you bring, which unit-buffing castle pieces you use, and how you use their abilities in the actual battle. I enjoy that kind of gameplay just fine, and I would say it's a good experience while it lasted, but you will have to brace for disappointment when your castles end up looking like a Minecraft newbie cobblestone house.
This game is a beautiful mess. RTS, Tower Defense, Colony Sim, Base Builder, and more. The game hints at brilliance, the only problem is like a brilliant child who has signed up for everything it has ended up being a B- student when it could have been an A+ if it had taken fewer electives. Each area of the game the different pieces don't always fit together well and feel disjointed. There are certain areas of the tech tree you just never get too. The well built buildings you see in clips are far to resources wasteful to build, though you'll likely splurge on an indulgence here or there. I think there is a version of this game where everything could do everything super well, but I suspect they didn't have the man power for it. Though I don't know much about how Digital Sun is set up so I could be wrong. That said if you think you might enjoy the game It's worth picking up especially on a sale. If I heard Cataclismo 2 was coming out I'd be excited.
I love this game, the lore is great, gameplay is great (especially building mechanics) However, a scripted loss in one of the missions is unfair. I spent a week building defences up to perfection just to find out that monsters take 0 damage. I would loved to be swarmed with thousands of monsters, but 0 damage is just unfair...
This game is underrated and I hope it gets the love it deserves. Not perfect, but you can't get this gameplay from other games. The allure of this game is the ability to lay down massive but intricate defenses at the drag of a mouse. Of course your are weak at the start, but resources start to pour in exponentially if your smart, and then you slather down stone walls like hot butter on toast. It becomes tedious to build structures and supports but the game almost becomes a puzzle at this point and the pause feature is perfect to slow the chaos down. There are CUSTOM BLUEPRINTS! They work amazing but integrating them into your other buildings can be a challenge, because, lets face it, you are playing architect managing space, weight and overall effectiveness of your designs. There is something special about slaughtering abominations by night, and spending the next 20 minutes designing the perfect efficient spiral staircase that has a side path to a lower custom made ledge where artillery is at its best elevation. The sandbox nature of the game is what keeps me coming back, storage filling up with stone? build a big dumb tower of stone 100 meters tall that you can recycle later when you need it! Sound design is punchy too with arrows whistling through a dark abyss. Units feel like beasts as they upgrade with experience. My big wishes: I wish we could get higher unit cap but I know for a fact they balanced this system so it wouldn't be too easy. I would pay again for a PVE, bright, colorful daytime game mode against other humans with castles that could scratch my itch to siege. TLDR I was looking for a fast paced castle defense game with intricate structure-based building on a massive scale and this one is the best so far.
