Nice little game, frustrating sometimes, but once you understand what to ignore and what to focus on, you can easily break the game :)

A good game with interesting mechanics, took several tries to figure out how to play but its worth the price of F R E E.
Decades old game and they still haven't put in a cancel building button. 2 hour run destroyed because I mis-clicked a tower. It forced my entire army to move up just after destroying a gate, and then a blood moon activated during the chaos and wiped out my army on the other side. Perfectly good run ruined by a simple mis-click. This is just lazy design. The game is over 10 years old. No excuse. I don't care if it's...
