Ash Warden

It's a tower defense game with a large upgrade tree that never has you feeling powerful. It usually feels like I'm targeting and shooting into mud somehow, despite all the effects. Art style is the biggest positive. Sound effects are mid and defeating enemies lacks impact. The levels being different waves on the same map with slight variations in tower placement means it's tedious. The gameplay is mostly fine except that charge shots often don't register because you're clicking on an enemy or because you clicked and held just before the charge ran out. It makes the game feel very clunky that you can't just hold the mouse button down to charge shot as soon as possible. The story is superfluous and barely present. The upgrade and explanatory text could have done with a grammar and consistency check.

At the start, you are locked in a grinding loop which is slow and tedious. Beside that, cool pixels art. I liked the visual a lot. Would recommend as a slight incremental but not as an Idler.

There isn't, really, much to this game. 2 heroes, 8 boss arenas. For the first 5 arenas there is pattern to monster movement, the last 3 they move at random and you have to plug the holes, understaffed. Also, you will have to repeat the levels a lot, as you are always far too weak to complete the level 1st time. And the 8th boss has so much health.... I am not really sure, if it's possible to beat it with Mele hero + normal attack + lightning. At full upgrades I didn't see it's hp bar move and life leech and regen are so ♥♥♥♥, you can't rely on them to stall him for at least 1 additional attack. Even when you arrive at him with a clear arena and full health towers, the boss demolishes you in 2,5 hits. Can't recommend this money sucker. It's not a game made to enjoy it.

In the middle of the game the attacker just stands there and doesn't move. Of course you can't reach him. Even using special abilities doesn't help because it0s health just stays there.

Very meh. No one likes the right side of the skill tree. If you really really really want it get this on sale i guess? Its not horrible but very very skippable and THERE IS NOTHING IDLE ABOUT THIS GAME so not sure why theres an "idler" tag here.

worth for the money a small game with very nice concept if the developer can add on it with some more interesting attacks and mechanics an some balancing to not be so spamy in endless mode will be a very very good game
