Artificer's Tower

I didint even get through the tutorial. This tower isint worth defending. its really ugly, and from minute one it forces you to build a disorganization heap isntead of a nice layout. The tutorial asked me to open a window that doesn't seem to exist and has no hotkey. Also, it wants a wierdly huge amount of micro like, second by second. also, this is just a personal thing, i think its very ugly. it looks like Gaia Online in the mid 2000s and that is not a look you wanna emulate. TLDR; This game is not cozy.

The game is ok'ish, but it doesn't click. Graphics are not really appealing and tutorial shows that gameplay loop is quite tedious even for the most simple tasks.

i dont know if it is the timing, or how badly explained everything is but i did not enjoy the game, there are artificial limits everywhere, like in how many rooms you may have of certain type and how much resources you may get per time. and atacks become harder and harder. feels like there is a one good strategy and all other ones are discouraged. the game is playable, but it wasnt entretaining

I like this kind of game. You do not need a high performence Computer. And its very relaxing and you can come down. :)

I had great fun playing this game! I like the art style and the progression system - theres about 10 ranks and on each rank up you specialise in something to make a super mage by the time they get to 10th level. There is a little bit of production chain mechanic to wrap your head around but its more about queue/bandwidth management that logistics as there is no motion between storage and work centre. The combat had me guessing a bit as combination of traps are key but there's no advice, i had to dip into my knowledge of other games/systems to figure it out. Thats probably accurate of the whole game to be honest, there was a lot of trial and error as the tutorial really doesn't teach you much and there is little in the way of tool tips. If you like that type of problem solving this game is for you. There was a couple of downsides in this game, neither of which are a turn off, but: 1) There so much clicking and sorting, I spent more than half my time in this game paused while I sort, filter, and name things. More automation mechanics would be awesome. 2) The art to winning this game is planning and learning the mechanics, rather than strategy and so there's no replayability …

I really enjoyed the game! It scratched an itch for a game with mages and management. The dev is very active and is still making upgrades, QOL fixes and squashes bugs on a weekly schedule to this day. Stand up guy.
