This game is honestly Pretty Darned Excelent, the only thing that it la cks is some end game content for those who want all stars and miss unlocks, and some sort of free play type more would maybe be great...Alrtnatively some workshop mods and a scenario editor woudl be amasing. I check back every couple years just to see if they ever came out with a sequel, I dont do that fo rmany game. Worth every pennyat full price

Deliveries doesn't take much time to finish, but they are challenging to conquer! You need some good decisions to make deliveries in one piece, first place and even beyond! Each cargo have their unique problems to solve and that's make game quite fun!

A neat take on the TD genre. It's not just about placing your guns properly, it's also about putting down the correct engines to do the mission efficiently, speed-wise. You pretty much have to adapt your strategy for each individual level, there is no real dominant strategy that will universally work all of the time. Gets fairly challenging later on. As a fan of TD's, I am definitely glad that I checked this one out.

It is a fun little game. I have not hit the problem where it feels like there is only one planned way to finish the missions, so it is entertaining and allows experimentation.
