Unsure if the game balance was changed since the other reviews, but - the game is actually fairly easy. Possibly too easy; I "beat" it without realizing it, only realizing I had finished the current content when my crystal count stopped going up. (It appears to have happened somewhere between 20 and 30 minutes into a round.) Overall, the game has promise, and is worth playing around in, but is clearly not "done" yet; the content that is there is fairly entertaining, and I definitely got my $3 worth, but it could use more content and some minor rebalancing to polish out some of the roughness. The basics are pretty solid; you have a wide variety of towers, each of which gets special effects from other towers (of the same kind) within its radius. You slowly accumulate gold over the course of each run, which you can use to buy new towers, and you get crystals as you defeat enemies, which can be used for a meta-progression to buy new types of towers, upgrade the towers, but also things...

Review at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_W4wa5Vt7uU Well this game is not balanced well and seems to make you lose super fast. As for title 'Defence," I am not sure if the name was intentionally spelt wrong.
I finished the game in 2h. The game concept is quite cool, but it was mega easy to complete. I wish the devs will add more stuff to it. I'm ok with 2h of gameplay for 4$, yet i wish for more.
Good concept, was fun for a little bit but I just put lightning towers and won pretty easy. After 30 minutes you stop getting money or crystals it just keeps on going forever. I had the game open for 2 hours and nothing after 30 mins. Needs to be some kind of hard stop at 30 minutes if you don't have an endless mode
they need to hotfix the way they made the armor, bosses are unkillable no amount of upgrading helps. Armor is quite literally immune to any form of damage...fix pls EDIT: ISSUE HAS BEEN FIXED, GAME IS COMPLETELY PLAYABLE AND FULLY ENJOYABLE! MUCH WORTH!
