Invader TD features well-balanced gameplay with engaging mechanics that keep players invested throughout its runtime.
The graphics are pleasant with nice pixel art and catchy music that enhances the overall experience.
Despite its short playtime, the game offers a fun challenge with multiple difficulty levels and strategic decision-making.

The game has limited content with only a single level and a short runtime of less than 2 hours.
There are very few tower types and upgrade paths, which can lead to a lack of variety and depth in gameplay.
The game may not provide enough challenge or tension, as the difficulty relies heavily on a splits paths concept that doesn't always work effectively.

- “The visuals are great and it looks well done; apparently, it took a while to be released.”
- “I do wish the game supported resolutions higher than 1080p, but with the graphical assets as they are, it's not really a necessity.”
- “The game is pretty simple with 4-5 types of towers in 2D visuals. I'm not saying it's a bad game; in fact, I had a lot of fun, but it's a short game that took me only 1 hour to beat on easy mode, and that's it.”
