A delightful little puzzle game. Success in this asks for a bit of both, cleverness and dexterity. The player has to figure out what are the best positions to place towers, so that they are able to take aim at the opposing towers without receiving too much return fire, all the while weaving between incoming bullets and hostile creatures. For a seasoned bullet dodger the game is not too difficult while not being trivial either. I found the difficulty just right, though I ignored the scoring system and did not aim for the highest honours. Getting the maximum rank requires completing levels without taking any hits while being mightily quick at the same time, and I can imagine that being a hair-pullingly devilish endeavour. I had very nice time spending a few bite-sized moments with this game over a week, until I had passed all the levels. I can very well imagine returning some day to try to get a perfect score.

Good game. The presentation, graphics, music & controls are fine. The game play can be fast-paced, yet also requires logic & thinking ahead. This is a retro style game, yet it is unique - I don't remember any other game that uses the mechanic of pulling cubes together to make certain things, like this game does. There's decent replay value, as you get 'gradings' for each level that you can improve on, & a good amount of levels to play. Totally worth £6.99.

A really really good game. It has the charm as if playing on a gameboy. The controll, music, soundeffects - everything is fine and fit together. It is not the game with the longest game time - but the time you spent on it is pure quality. I like it ;-) One of my favourite indie games.

A little astonished at the number of bad reviews for this one. It's a simple action/puzzler with a little more demand than usual on your "twitch" gaming skills. It feels different and has a cute, tongue-in-cheek atmosphere. Definitely worth it on sale; at full price it depends on your tastes, I suppose.

Maybe a bit expensive for €9.99, but I'm loving the game, the puzzles, the music, the pixel art and the ridiculous conversations in game. If you like quick wit puzzle games, this is a good one!
