    • “I would recommend you just make a few sacrifices and play the 2015 remake Crazy Chickens Moorhun: Invasion or better yet avoid this franchise altogether and try something like Starfence: Heroic Edition which has additional mechanics in the form of tower defense elements while keeping the twitch shooter mechanics mostly intact.”
