This game is great for those who like (or might enjoy) tower defence games with extra steps. Instead of just placing and upgrading towers like in other tower defence games; this game gives you some elementary parts like blocks and guns with which you can use to crteate the towers. Don't like how little damage a tower is doing? Add more guns. Is your tower unable to power all of the guns that you just added? Add more anchorpoints or generators. Personally I enjoy this system of tower creation, especially when they introduce new mechanics (no spoilers). The tutorials are placed around the levels on signs which need to be interacted with and read. They do occasionally teach with demos as well. The levels took a while, (because they were difficult at first; not because they were tedious), but I enjoyed the challenges.

Great graphics and very interesting game play. If you like games that take a good strategy and evolving abilities your going to really love this one. It's one of those games that once you get it you think, wow this was under priced! I've paid more for junk games but this one really delivers.

I don't think its for everyone. I finished the entire game and I admit to many it can be a tedious game, gathering resources, repairing components, assembling, but I think the payoff is excellent when an offensive goes right, and you overcome the obstacles that have been put in place through creativity and a little bit of micromanagement (especially if you do reflector drones). It isn't really a tower defense game. If you're looking for primarily tower defense this isn't really it. The later levels feature close to zero tower defense leaning more towards into offensive strategies with flying builds and sometimes cart strategies. The game also is frankly not very easy. This is definitely a game that would be practically impossible without frequent saves. Each failed offensive improves your strategy though, and learning everything on your own without any handholding is a unique and rewarding experience.
