What players say
I love this game, 40 hours in and there is still quite a bit to do. There are more updates on the way too. :) Worth a buy.
Seriously one of my FAVORITE tower defense. I love the mechanics and its adorable?! I was unsure about the incremental mechanic at first, but it really isn't that bad! lol. It didn't take me long to get addicted! It fills my base building and TD needs. I can't wait for MOAR.
Fun tower defense game. Simple yet punishing if you don't optimize your strategy. Completed all achievements and looking forward to future updates!
