[b]I haven't played cubemen since the release of the new updates, so I will be updating this review once I have had the chance to test out the new unit balances.[/b] [b]Gameplay:[/b] If you're not playing this game to compete with friends, but rather just occasionally compete against the AI then you will probably enjoy this game. It offers interesting new features such a placing mines and building walls, which allow you to control the enemy flow. By using special units you or the enemy can disassemble the walls. The AI are rather simple and in reality offer no competition even on the hardest difficulty. Although, unlike the first cubemen the interesting feature this one has to offer is that the units can be upgraded. This means you can build armies up with strong weak units rather than more expensive units. The problem is this leads to unbalances. In the original if you lost the first fight you could send your cubemen out and kill the unit that killed yours without too much difficult...

ENG: A simple and great game! But the micro-payment system is not successful and exaggerated, do not need to be this! FIN: Yksinkertainen ja hyvä peli! Mutta mikromaksu järjestelmä ei ole onnistunut ja liioteltu, ei tarvi olla tätä!
I regret buying this, The controls are clunky, the mechanics are not that workable, the tutorial is ok but doesn't explain the options and menu, you have to fumble around to try and figure it out. The difficulty, is out of wack, on easy ITS SOO EASY and then hard is too damn difficult!
Really well done! Enjoyed the first Cubemen, and I'm loving the second so far. The developers really made improvements all around, from the menus, to the characters, to gameplay and modes.. etc. Def worth the buy, would love to see more people on playing again, I know my crew will be. Great job *cha-chiing!*
Cubemen 2 is like a combination of RTS and Chess. It can be fairly repetitive, deplying units over and over again and adjusting their formation to decrease the chance of their death, but at the same time, you can use all sorts of different tactics to control the field. It's also a little easier and more dynamic than the original Cubemen.
I like the game, It's just the game gets ruined when the AI spams the mine characters around your base. It's not tactics. Its spamming, It makes the game beyond boring when they spam.Almost all the games characters are pointless except the basic infantry guy whom you can spam too who does more damage than the other gys and is MUCH cheaper. I'd reccomend Cubemen one than this one. Get that game.
Dont know why, but i like it. Good tower defence with team/versus modes. Take 2-pack during sale to play with/against friend.
This game merges tower defense with real time strategy. Think Team Fortress 2, with smaller maps, always on Comannder from Battlefield, and everybody actually does what you say. You have 10 different classes of Cubemen. You have Pistol, Flint, Lightning, Ice, Rocket, Laser, Sniper, Engineer, Wall, and Mine. You move them around the map, and whenever somebody gets inside their shooting range, they shoot. You can play online with up to 5 other people, with modes such as Mayhem, CTF, Skirmish, and Territory. You can play with the AI if you want. In singleplayer, it's tower defense, but in real time. Each wave starts on its own, which creates a sense of danger. Your opponents charge WILL shoot back at your defenses, so make sure you have a ton of them. This game is amazing and I would suggest it to anyone who likes strategy games.
I found it.. You don't understand, since 2012, back when I was a little kid; on my tablet was a tower defense game with cube people which I LOVED. After that, the tablet was gone and couldn't find the game again. I searched every week, than every day, no luck. 12 years pass by, I finally got a pc, downloaded steam. I never forgot that cube tower defense game. I searched up tower defense on steam, scrolled for a long time, than found something familiar. A nostalgic feeling went through me as I saw the cover, the name, and pictures. I got flashbacks of my young self playing this game. I knew I found it. This was the first Cubemen game, I found Cubemen 2 just right now, I didn't know a 2nd game existed, immediately downloaded this. The 2nd one was different from the first, but I felt the same feeling when I played 12 years ago. Good times. This was actually my childhood game (The first Cubemen) SO you don't understand how precious and happy I am that I found this game. Even if it's outdat...
Thumbs up!
