About Tower of Doom
Tower of Doom is a VR arcade shooter in which the player has to survive multiple waves of enemies in different levels. Each round the player gets to choose one out of four auto-generated guns in order to move up the highscoreboard and make it to the next stage.
Normal Mode:
You play each round in a new level with increasing difficulty. Before each round, you can choose an additional auto-generated gun, and in a mini-game you can regenerate your health and shields, upgrade your weapons and get back one of four energy impulses.
Arcade Mode:
You fight only in one level against never-ending waves of enemies. You have no way to regenerate your shields and only four energy impulses. Use them wisely. You can regenerate your health only through very high killstreaks. After every wave you can get one random gun.
Archery Mode:
You play each round in a new level with increasing difficulty. You have only a Bow and your Arrows and no way to regenerate your shields and only four energy impulses. You can regenerate your health only through very high killstreaks.
Much more levels, enemies and guns with intressing abilities.

✦ AI summary
Tower of Doom is a wave-based VR shooter praised for its stylish presentation, diverse weapons with randomized stats and Borderlands-like effects, and the clever mechanic of converting unused guns into turrets. However, players note it lacks depth beyond the wave shooter formula, suffers from a game-breaking bug that prevents level completion roughly 25% of the time, and would benefit from additional content like RPG or roguelike progression systems and more varied boss encounters.
[code]Written By Hidden Gems Review : https://store.steampowered.com/curator/38624426/, Follow me! [/code] Here you can see my Gameplay : https://youtu.be/vZNcl_RCdRs Tower of Doom is a Wave FPS VR game. With this one feel like could be so great but can't reach the level because the lack of development on some areas. Where the game shines it's the bullet type and the weapons are like borderlands guns with nice and wonderfull effects but the rest it's kind of lacking on content, it's like the tipical wave shooter on VR. This game if we add some rpg or roguelike part probably would be on of the best VR games but the decision that just make it a wave shooter lose all his potential of that wonderfull weapons.4 found this helpful
Edit - There is a game-breaking bug where the game does not register that all the mobs have been killed so youree left standing in the middle of an open map with nothing going on. The game has no pause or menu button so the only way to fix this bug is to restart the game through the VR menu etc. This bug happens mostly on the first level but it happens on others rarely. I have encountered it roughly 25% of my runs. [hr][/hr] [h1] These other reviews are full of poo. Buy this. [/h1] Tower of Doom is a great arcade game. It would appear these other reviewers dont understand the mechanics of the game. (scroll to the end for gameplay tips and observations) Some mechanics: 1. Extra or unused guns can be placed on pedestals which turn them into turrets that shoot along side you during waves. 4 pedestals and 2 hands means 6 guns can be in play at any given time, and the pedestals display its current gun's stats so you can easily compare it to others. 2. Guns have a general level along side individual stats such as rate of fire and accuracy, making it fun to swap out guns as you get new ones increasing your overall firepower. 3. Before each wave you choose 1 new gun from a selection of…4 found this helpful
pretty sweet game! The guns kinda give me a borderlands vibe since they have rng stats/abilities. The enemies have a good amount of differences to them in appearance and types and there's even more types of guns. I really like how you can keep upgrading your weapon to make it last longer and that you have 4 weapon turret spots to place guns you want to keep or to put a new gun while you're working on upgrades for it. I think it has potential for lots more too! ( i'd love to see more boss or mini boss encounters.)3 found this helpful
a great game of gun with a random attribute so every games looks differents the only thing i find unfortunate is we can not save the progress and guns we selected so if we love a gun particulary we have to win every time to keep this gun if we lost we will lost this gun and as it is random attribute we could not easyly have this gun again if not the graphism in looks bd are wonderfull even if we would love to see few anime characters we see in the wonderfull draws on the wall of the menu setting during the stages like the robots we can protect and wich can protect us but there is no human characters and i found the only non robots enemies less anime shading but anyway i recommand a lot this game a great game vr2 found this helpful
What I like most about this game is the style. You see a lot of wave shooters in general but only few stand out. Tower of Doom approaches the concept with a futuristic, arcade-like style that reflects in everything you see in the game. The graphics look neat and the vibrant colors convey a feeling of innocent fun, if only there weren't these PESKY robot crabs. Since the world is being overrun with these little but dangerous creatures there's only one thing you can do about it, shoot them till they're dead. For this you get a range of weapons with unique abilities suiting everyones playstyle. The weapons are randomized each time you get to pick one and you can pick one of four options. If you feel tired of a weapon you can simply put it in one of the four weapon slots surrounding the player, which in turn will act as turrets to protect you. You can also take them back if you want, which might not always be a bad idea as levelling up a weapon is sometimes better than always picking the seemingly stronger one. You do this through the Power-Up stage you see each time you start a level. This works just like you would expect an amusement park shooting range to work. The power-ups move ev…1 found this helpful
Graphics are good but its just a tower defense shooter which doesnt bring anything new to stand out1 found this helpful
