Even if the visuals are not appealing, the design of the game is great! Super fun to play!
great game
Has charm and could very well be great to to the right people but for me, RNG + slow gameplay = slowly watching in frustration, and there's not enough charm to make up for that.
A puzzle stratagy game with an amusing characters :D Weirdly adictive when you loose tho
A decent turn based strategy puzzle game that feels quite unique. On the other hand, there does feel like something is missing, perhaps the fact that it's generally not possible to build "neatly". The chaotic-ness makes all the rounds feel kind of same-y. At least the campaign missions have varied objectives to spice things up.
This is an absolute gem of a game. Completely underrated. In it you take turns placing rooms/tiles facing against 1 or multiple AI opponents, and through your moves you can completely head off and impede your opponents roomset, or you can place down a canon and blast their chambers to pieces. And there's plenty of variety in the goals of each mission - high score within turn limit, survival, kill x rooms of enemy, etc. which keeps it fresh. There's easily a good 15-20 hours of gameplay here, if you play on the hard difficulty to complete all 8 campaigns, and though there's some uneven difficulty spikes, it all leads up to and culminates in a great final campaign and great final mission in particular, which probably took me over an hour in itself as I kept dying to the relentless AI. Note there's no story to speak of barring the introductory level where our evil mastermind sets up the conceit behind the whole game. So just be warned if you were expecting more by the mention of "campaigns". It's just a set of missions with your character having slightly different abilities but the core gameplay loop remains the same. Definitely don't shy away from picking this up as you'll be …
