Veterans of both PvZ and Diablo are going to find that Deathtrap handles both genres in a substantial way.
"Deathtrap is a role-playing Tower Defense game with action-RPG elements, known for its unique mixture of both genres. Play solo or in co-op mode to defend strongholds and defeat hordes of monsters using deadly traps and spells. Despite some optimization issues and bugs, Deathtrap offers a good story, delightful mechanics, wonderful visuals, excellent music, and high replayability."

Critic Reviews
Deathtrap
Deathtrap is a game that, although it may sound cliche, is easy to pickup but very difficult to master. And if you do happen to master it, you can go on to have endless hours of fun online with its Steamworks level editor that allows anybody to create and share new arenas within the community. I haven’t even mentioned the online versus mode where one player gets to control the ebb and flow of enemies whilst the other continues as the hero and needs to defend their bases. There is a lot on offer from Deathtrap and although much of it feels used, it certainly feels nice to just slip into that safe zone and simply just enjoy what you have in front of you.

In borrowing so heavily from its heritage, developer Neocore could have quite easily overburdened the somewhat narrow tower defence formula with pointless additions and misery inducing micro-management busywork. As it is, Deathtrap approaches the qualitative apex of its craft and niggles aside, sets a splendid example of how to marry two genres together to make a superlative whole.

Deathtrap is a fun co-op game, but fails to deliver in single player. Some skill and trap options are less than amazing, but overall they do pretty good. Gamepad support has some problems, but mouse and keyboard users shouldn't have any issues. Give it a try if you like playing with other people.
