I don't think it's worth the time in 2026. I don't like clunky management, and the way the game limits places where you can build your towers. I want to play TD, and I will look for something else.1 found this helpful
The game is extremely good even in 2026, aged very well and in my opinion one of the last proper tower defense game on the market. Its a mix between diablo 2/path of exile and tower defense, Very awesome game!. Suprised it never got more coverage.1 found this helpful
I am a big fan of tower defense games, and this one is a unique spin on the old "just build towers" trope1 found this helpful
