Heretic's Fork

Tower defense game that takes place in hell. Defeat 9 waves of enemies to win. [h1] Pros: [/h1] - Multiple builds to try including tower, garrison, luck, etc. - Music tracks fit the horror themes with the game. [h2]Cons: [/h2] - Runs are on the long side and usually last over 50 minutes. 45 minutes or less is my preferred time to win. - Each run feels fairly similar because player either picks a certain tower or garrison build. - When paying coins to unlock new cards or towers, you can't see what you are unlocking. As player unlocks more, the card/tower pool is diluted making it harder to get your build to work. - RNG can make your run end. When upgrading cards, if you don't get what you need, you will probably lose. [b] Conclusion: [/b] A tower defense game that feels more like a roguelike game. Runs are way too long and don't respect the player's time. Build dilution and RNG are other problems that make winning less consistent. If runs were shorter and less repetitive, the game would be more enjoyable.

Kind of meh. I like the visual style and music, but looking through the possible upgrades doesn't really spark much interest. Doesn't feel like a bullet heaven or tower defense so much as an idle horde animation played behind a matching card game; there are very few things for the player to actively do during rounds, and the winning strategy just seems to be "match rarities." There's a lot to unlock but upgrading feels tedious. Might try it again later.

While I do think this game is good enough to recommend, for the 18 hours I have played I have been more frustrated with the game's HEAVY reliance on RNG. There is no way I have found yet that lets you take cards out of your deck so the more cards you have, the more unlikely it gets for you to get the cards you actually want which gets even worse for Garrisons since the vast majority of the cards in the game favor Towers. But when luck does favor you, getting you actually useful cards for the weapons you are using? It is a lot of fun watching the horde of enemies either slowly push in or just get utterly obliterated the moment they walk into range of your weapons.

The main issue I have with this game is the runs last way too long with no good way to speed it up, making runs feel less challenging and more of a waiting simulator. On top of that, it is quite easy to get stronger and stronger by actually not unlocking new things, making finding powerful combos easy. So not participating in the meta progression gives you an easier time in the levels.

Unique gameplay to the bullet heaven genre. Challenging but rewarding when you find a good build.

one crazy addictive roguelike deckbuilder . the main menu is like an amiga ( lots of of fun things to do on the computer ) the music is so good and you get to kill sinners in hell what more do you want ?
