dude, I can't read your goddamn text in the game.. it's way too small 😂
- James Archer · v1.1.3
very Grindy probably not worth however much i payed for it
- harrison white · v1.1.1
I can't find the dev email so I'm reporting a bug here: when the game is closed by the OS in the background it does not open properly, it must be manually closed and opened. The game in itself is fun a fairly priced.
- Francesco Perego · v1.1.1
I love the pixel art a ton. The game starts off decently hard, but as you get stronger the easier it is for you to progress. I would definitely recommend this game as it has no ads and is legitimately fun to play.
- Carmen Rodriguez · v1.1.1
Does not support cloud saves. Moved to a new device, lost all my progress and purchases.
- Mike “Zero” · v1.1.1
4/5 game, would be a 5/5 if it had either more hero variety, or better hero balancing. Currently 80% of the roster feels pretty useless. Hero rarity doesnt seem to matter much. Rare heroes seem to perform significantly better than epic or legendary heroes.
- Matt Jackson · v1.1.1
It's honestly a blast. I did find it to be very grindy starting mid-game in a way that required the game to be open and running for hours, which is a mechanic I loathe. I'm supposed to just leave my phone open, like?? Luckily good ol time hack cheat works fine, although I don't appreciate the guilt-trip the game gives you over it. I'm sorry, if you have no leader board, I'm going to play a game I PAID MONEY for however I want. Don't be stupid. Besides that though the progression is fun! Play it!
- E Coates · v1.1.1
The game is pretty cool but here are my gripes: I wish there was even more characters. There is a good amount but not enough so I feel like I am always running the same people. The game could use a larger variety of enemies as well. You also always fight on the same side of the castle, rotating sides would make it feel more fresh
- Tyler · v1.1.1
I love the game, but I think it needs more heroes. I would also like to be able to deploy more heroes in general.
- Alexander Lanning · v1.1.1
Played it for over 12 hours on my first go. This game is amazing.
- Alexander Barnard · v1.1.1
After reaching almost the end of the game I can safely say that this is 100% worth it. i wish they updated it more because it is very fun. No grinding really, buy it and play it. Some of the mechanics aren't intuitive and that's fine because it's FUN to figure it out. Great game!
- Blake Galloway
This game is amazing, cheap price for what it offers. no in game transactions and offers a ton of playtime and fun strategy, the skill tree is big and fun to mess around with and none of the progression mechanics feel convoluted. I'd give it 10 stars out of 5 if I could.
- Corey Rummel · v1.1.1
pretty fun! I like the particular way it blends the tower defense/ idle genres. the heroes are all pretty cool and contribute different things, it's not a totally brainless game
- Ben Peterson · v1.1.1
I really like the game, it's pretty fun and satisfying and as you progress there is a auto mode but it is made clear that playing it yourself gives you a better chance at winning, so I usually auto for grinding while i clean or eat. I can't wait to see what else they add, but for know the game is fun and enough.
- Jessie Velasco
pretty fun game. Hopefully there will be an update soon
- Mr Showtime · v1.1.1
overall fun, should have more idle reward options though with the way costs increase. also, the two summoners can't ever get "unleash inner power" even though you have to spend a skill point on it...
- Kasey Dickey · v1.1.1
The real game starts once you beat wave 200 on level 10.
- Xaxaxaxa · v1.1.1
I could get this about anywhere for free and I'm really bummed I had to waste five dollars
- Matthew Chinn
This has been my current go-to game any time I need to kill a few minutes. It has been incredibly enjoyable so far! Definitely give this one a shot.
- Justin Shaffer · v1.1.1
Really fun wall defense/incremental. One time payment, no microtransactions. Fantastic game.
- Jared Bridge · v1.1.1
Tower defence style game with vampire survivors-like leveling. No ads and no micro transactions, which is so refreshing. Fun and addictive. One downside is that it uses a lot of battery power
- Stephen Jenkins · v1.1.1
during wave 2, the boss is broken it uses invincibility and then stays invincible making it unkillable
- Jimmy Bishop · v1.1.1
good game I want more updates for it
- Noel Williams · v1.1.1
It's a fun base defense game with mild gacha mechanics and a simple progression system. Eventually the game turns into an idle game that requires the game to be open for hours to grind out the paper, materials, and gold needed to unlock everything. There are some timed mechanics that can be upgraded to give large reward boosts to help with the grind.
- Tommy West · v1.1.1
i thought you added new boss monsters, game modes and more. when will you respond?
- Caleb Galloway · v1.1.1
Simple, but with enough new things happening that you can spend a good few hours a day on it. Hope they keep adding new things for more replayability, enemy heroes or towers maybe?
- Torstein Unstad Heimdal · v1.1.0
This is a fun little TD. I recently unlocked Nilm and his black hole ability doesn't appear to do anything even after leveling drag up to 5. I saw someone mention the same on Reddit so I don't think it's just me. it's a shame because he seems like he'd be really cool, but so far I've found him to be be useless, far from legendary :/ also noticed the well seems to be unfinished. really hoping that doesn't end up being a microtransaction hub. I pay money for games to avoid microtransaction hell
- Kyle Reese · v1.0.1
this game is so much fun only thing I think will keep it going is more playable characters cause as of right now I think you can only summon about ten diffrent characters you need alot more to keep people interested in it
- Devin Churchill · v1.0.1
For a developer I've never heard of this is decent. I was pleasantly surprised how good this game is. It has a lot of potential to be one of the better TD games on the playstore. I know you have a option for bigger font but it's still to small for my old eyes. please add a HUGE FONT option. Seriously though, I can barely read what's on my screen. Other than that it's a cool game.
- Daniel Wheeler · v1.0.1
Pleasantly surprised
- Meg M · v1.0.1
I had a friend recommend the demo to this game last week. Unlike other mobile games of this genre, this game didn't push ads or sell p2w microtransactions. The progression systems are actually pretty detailed. I think the dev has a lot of great ideas, and I'm sure they will implement more. I have only one minor complaint. I wish I could toggle the seasons or perma set a season because I've put 8 hours into this game in a week, and it's usually in bed, and the winter kills my eyes.
- Robert · v1.0.1
Such a great experiance. Strongly recomend
- Michael Gouveia · v1.0.1
I'm really liking it so far. Is there a way to swap out heros during a run?
