    • “The balancing is regular and changes enough to be satisfying, the gameplay loop is entertaining and rewards you for thinking on your feet and trying new strategies.”
    • “The gameplay is engaging and there are plenty of different things to do, but unfortunately, there are times when the game can start to feel a bit repetitive.”
    • “The game has fallen into the trap of making 80% of the game not matter through shutdowns and other mechanics.”
    • “The gameplay is extremely linear with little breathing room.”
    • “I hate being matched against a duo that will completely exploit the game mechanics with one of them going fiesta and leaking over 100% of waves while the other one holds.”

  • replayability83 mentions

    The game boasts exceptional replayability, with players highlighting its complexity, variety of characters, and numerous strategies to explore.

    • “I feel like I'm watching the same movie on repeat - that much for replayability.”

    • “Maybe some more map variety might increase the replayability, like some where the build areas intersect, or with only one build area you share, so as to make the game more interesting and cooperative, perhaps adding a bit more variability to the enemy waves, so you don't just autopilot through your fighter placement, and actually have to strategize about what to put when.”
  • story50 mentions

    The game's story aspect is largely criticized for its lack of depth and engagement, with many users noting that the campaign consists of repetitive battles without a cohesive narrative. While some appreciate the challenging gameplay and mechanics, they express a desire for more substantial story content and missions to enhance the experience. Overall, the focus remains primarily on multiplayer and gameplay rather than a compelling story.

    • “I don't normally like PvE/story mode, but this game went out of its way to make a challenging story mode even though the main feature of the game is PvP.”

    • “I had no familiarity with the original mod, but was intrigued by the mechanics and development story.”
    • “The 'campaign' has no story and is just a few duels each.”
    • “There is no plot and you can use exactly the same strategy to win all 7 battles.”
    • “Tedious, counterintuitive, repetitive, confusing, theme-less, story-less, uninspired, but worst, patently not an actual team tower defense game.”

Many players experience frustrating gameplay interruptions, such as freezing and lag, especially on larger monitors, and the user interface is criticized for being poorly designed and buggy. While some acknowledge the game's visual appeal and potential, the overall consensus is that the current state is too unstable for a satisfactory gaming experience.

    • “Game used to be good, but now way too buggy after the 10.0 release.”

  • monetization24 mentions

    The monetization model of the game primarily revolves around cosmetic purchases, with many players appreciating that these do not impact gameplay and are not perceived as cash grabs. However, some users express concern over the presence of microtransactions in a paid game, feeling that certain features, like guilds, are overpriced.

    • “Microtransactions in a paid game always feels bad.”
  • optimization22 mentions

Overall, the game shows potential for optimization but currently struggles with performance consistency, especially for competitive play.

    • “Super good mastery curve and payoff as you invest in increasing your own performance over time.”
    • “Something really interesting to me is that the waves are static, so opening strategy and placement can be optimized, but there is still tons of strategy and skill required.”

    • “I found this game to be rather pigeonholed in terms of min/max optimization.”
    • “Not optimized for Mac at all.”

    • “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
    • “A bit grindy... sometimes.”

    • “My only gripe is that unlocking masterminds for solo/coop/custom games is quite grindy, and it uses the same currency you use to unlock cosmetics.”
    • “Not that this doesn't separate the bad players from the good players, but I just want to point out that the game can feel really tedious after a certain point if you want to climb, so keep that in mind.”
    • “After 200 hours of hard grinding and research on different builds, I can confidently say this.”
