User reviews & Ratings
Explore reviews from Steam users sharing their experiences and what they love about the game.
Game is cool and offers plenty of play time for the price. Fun little dark-sided tower defense game; nothing ultra complicated, but it does take some experimentation to figure out how to resource up faster. Lots to unlock. Great little meta-TD builder with bosses every so often. 5/5 for what it is (unique styling).
8/10 - Really solid tower defense game. Very much recommended. I'm not into city builders and Nordhold's city building element still won me over. Below is a complaint that shouldn't deter anyone interested in the game because its optional 'post-game' stuff. I wish the 2nd meta progression mode capped out at 500 honor per node so it would be more chill and fun to complete. The fact that its basically a 1000 hour grind is what keeps me from playing this anymore.
