Hi, The moving tower defense mechanic which are your heroes in this game is genuinely a good feature. it is fresh and adds a great layer of strategy to each mission. The different heroes are also well-designed — each one deals significantly more damage to certain types of enemies, and the way their attack patterns interact with those enemies is really well implemented. For example, when a hero focuses on area-of-effect damage, the game smartly spawns enemy groups that come in larger numbers but with lower health, which makes fights feel dynamic and satisfying. That said, the grinding for upgrades feels unnecessary and only serves to slow down the pacing. It would’ve been much better if the upgrade grind was introduced after finishing the main story, so it could serve as a way to extend the gameplay rather than pad it out. After a certain point, heroes become so powerful that strategy barely matters — it doesn’t really make a difference who’s attacking what anymore. The early part of the game is also quite slow; it takes a few missions before you even get access to most of your towers (heroes), which can make the opening feel like a slog. Finally, the in-game economy is tedious and frustrating to deal with. It feels like unnecessary busywork that gets in the way of the fun parts of the game. Overall, it’s a solid experience, great core mechanic — but it’s held back by grindy progression and a slow start. it’s good in concept but lacks in execution.
