I played this for the first time many years ago and was thrilled to find it on steam. As a TD lover, I appreciated the gameplay and the mechanics. However, there is more to this game. The game unfolds along an extremely well written story. Funny dialogues, actually correct grammar :)) and I also like the character design. Just get it!

Great game! Great if bored and just want something to play on the go casually, but you can get into the loop and spend hours! The only reason I am writing this review is because at one point they ask if you want to like their socials, and if you say no, they still give you the reward and you engage in funny dialogue, thats the right attitude!

A very fun Tower Defense/RPG hybrid and overall one of the best Tower Defense games I've ever played. If you like exterminating endless waves of enemies while grinding for levels and equipment upgrades, this game is for you.

A really effective story-based tower defense game. I really hope the sequel ends up coming out. This game is a lot of fun to repeat, an enjoyable challenge to try and complete, and an enjoyable set of characters going through a very well-done narrative.

It's fun. I like the RPG aspect but it's not really that much choice. I know it's a bit older game, but there are definitely better tower defenses now. This one kind of feels like a remnant from the Flash era, where it would be top tier. It's worth playing on sale.
