“I don't really get all the negativity this game gets. It's fun. RNG is not a big deal - played a couple runs on level 3. ... I'm sure I'll put several more hours into this game at least.”
“A good looking game with fun gameplay and some outrageously terrible balance. Putting together something functional from random cards is a good twist on tower defense that keeps it from becoming the same build over and…”
“Very fun Tower Defense, but the difficulty just feels way too high. To the point where in some runs I don't know how I could have possibly done any better but still lost.”

“A great take and my go to for tower defense! Great variety without becoming overwhelming. The three biomes each have unique challenges and each commander has cool perks that prevents playing round after round from being…”
“Beware: very addictive gameplay. Shares a lot of features with the game "Rogue Tower," only with more modes and the addition of commanders that come with their own perks. If you've played any tower defense game before,…”
“ONE OF THE BEST TD GAMES ever. IMHO. I've played many a tower defense game in my time. This just has so many options, so many unlocks, weapons, choices after each round that can ultimately make or break your success.…”

“I loved this tower defence game. It has some rogue lite elements with the random towers that are offered each round, plus lots of different passove abilities to power up your favourite towers. You can choose to build a…”
“Solid tower defense game - quite a bit to unlock, lots of variation.”

“The higher difficulties are challenging but fun, really enjoying this game. Worth a try for sure.”
“This game really gives BTD6 a run for it's money, with actually challenging casual maps and a more diverse cast!”
“Best tower defense game I have ever played. I highly recommend it. So many variations. It is never boring. It isn't easy, but you don't mind because it is so fun. I love this game.”

“Positive: - Looks good - Runs well Negative: - Have to wait for animations while picking units or upgrades - Menues close down, causing small waits for animations again - 10% skill, 10% luck, 80% RNG”
“Game feels unfinished while visually looking decent. Got it on sale as part of a bundle, and even then it just isn't worth it.”

“I really want to like this game, but the balance is so off on higher tiers. Getting one-shotted by an enemy on wave 32 with 22000 HQ HP is not a fun experience. Balancing needs some work. There's difference between…”
“This game had a lot of potential as far as tower defenses go. But there are too many layers of RNG caked in.. You virtually have no control over your run. It's based off of shear luck on multiple fronts (Enemies you…”

“It's okay, super repetitive and not really that in depth. RNG mechanics aren't really interesting and make higher difficulty runs not as enjoyable.”
“One of the better Tower Defense games imo. I will be recommending this game to motivate the devs but this game has some major issues imo. 1. The isse with harder levels is the start. I know RNG is a factor in these…”
“honestly, just great fun, super easy to jump in and have a round. I do wish there was some sort of meta progression of sorts to promote even more replayability, but that's just my opinion man”

“While I think this is a good game, it's also very frustrating. The concept is great, and the gameplay is great. However, you can have a seemingly very good tower setup, but then the next wave wipes you out with no warning signs, and no time to prep. I'll go 25 consecutive waves…”
— a player, Steam review · 186 hrs played“As a dad who can’t really commit to PvP games anymore, I’ve always gravitated back to tower defense being a 90s kid, I’ve played a ton of them (Starcraft, tons of tower defence games on the phone). This one really stands out. The path-building mechanics, different factions, and…”
— a player, Steam review · 221 hrs played“A lot of people I see with negative reviews say they hate it because of the RNG element, and how even if you make a perfect defense, it can all come crumbling down with one bad wave roll. Me? I LIVE for that. Kingdom Rush and it's linear always-the-same wave progression that…”
