I think for under $10 this is a must buy. I'm really impressed. Because of the low review count I get the concern spending $20 for a game. I will say having been burned many, many, many times. :). Good story and direction through the campaign. This one is one of the few exception I would pay up to $20 for sure. Great jobs DEV's on this one. Some enhancements I would recommend: __Health status on main base (when some get through it would be nice to see a damage indicator or something). __Sometimes I noticed while trying to upgrade from a distance the turrets wouldn't select. __Would love to see if it's possible to crank up the graphics more in the settings. __Profiles; Would be nice to see profiles. My son want's to play but if he plays under my account and has never played he gets toasted. __Get more Gears; I've hit a wall a couple of times during game play where I need more of an advantage or different plan of attack. Either way it would be nice if you can go and replay older mis...

User Reviews
Works on Reverb G2. Iron Guard is a solid VR Tower Defence, partially dragged down by an absence of challenge in the first half. It was still addictive even on the easier levels, but after 20th level the game really clicked for me. It was the first level that required skill point reallocation and change of strategy for me, and this is the best part of TD games, IMHO. While VR does not add much to the gameplay (controlling a Xortex-like drone to shoot dumb predictable targets is not much fun), it lets the player see huge portion of the level from any point on the map. And sci-fi environments look really good as miniature dioramas. The campaign took me solid 10 hours to complete. The story was interesting at first and well presented with fully voiced-over briefings, but then it just did not go anywhere.
Nice game. A bit short
