Fun for how simple it is but theres just not enough variety in it for me. Theres only 3 real turrets in the game and you get them all from the get go. You just kinda mush them all together in clusters around a power source in the same set locations every time, because the soul plants are there. The upgrades are also kind of limited and you have a choice between three but you kinda feel like you see the same three choices all the time ...and theyre also kinda bland. X more dmg, X more range etc. The part I like is having tools that arent strictly damage dealers, things like a trampoline or a speed boost should make their way into more tower defense games with a controllable character. If youre not bothered by the games simplicity you might enjoy it, the idea is pretty fun, simply gets too repetitive for me personally.

An interesting take on the tower defence genre ! There are lots of things to do when the wave is going on. Definitely a challenge ! Would recommend if you like tower defence and want something where you have more agency during the action phase :)
