The gameplay is characterized by a return to basic tower defense mechanics, featuring six types of classic towers with limited upgrades, which some players find simplistic and lacking depth. While the mechanics function adequately, the controls can feel clunky, and the overall experience is described as mediocre, with minimal content and a grindy feel that detracts from enjoyment.
- “The mechanics are a return to genre basics: there are 6 types of classic towers, with 4 upgrades each, all well depicted, calculated, and useful.”
- “Its mechanics work fine, although it might feel a bit clunky due to its controls.”
- “A totally mediocre-at-best tower defense game with boring gameplay.”
- “The mechanics work fine although it might feel a bit clunky due to its controls.”
- “The gameplay is pretty bad for a tower defense game; very simplistic with very few game modifiers besides normal and hard settings. There is a survival mode, but again, it's very simplistic. Towers are very basic, and you have two different speed settings: slow and normal speed. Not a lot of content to play through, it becomes a boring grind for no real advantage—no Steam achievements. The upgrade system is about as basic as it gets and doesn't provide enough advancements for towers.”
