Very good but needs stats. Would be nice to know how much damage each unit or type is doing.

The only substancially negative thing I have to say about this game is that it is to short / has to few stages. Still very much worth its price, I enjoyed it a lot.
Not recommended Jun 28, 2026
Would give a sideways thumb if it was possible. the game is very fun for a couple of hours, if the campaign stopped at Insane difficulty it would be a 9/10, after you figure out a strategy to beat the scaling difficulties up to 470% to 100% the achievements you will just have to repeat the same thing for hours (once per character). Buy if you want to complete the campaign casually, if you feel like getting all achievements and seeing all it has to offer be ready to waste quite a few hours.

A functional but very basic game in some areas. I had a good time but the game loop grew stale once I tried everything on the normal difficulty. My favorite approach was going mostly ranged with tank frontliners. I attempted to transition into mostly necromancers but those come into play much later.
