“Good TD game for casual playing here and there, took 25 hours to beat on all difficulty and to get all tech points. A good game to pickup on sale and play when the internets out or no ones online to play with in other games.”

“I enjoyed the previous game. This one feels ordinary and not exciting. What was fun about tactics before is not possible in this game.”
