What drives the score

Grades: S best, D weakest

S is the best grade and D the weakest, judged as a buyer. ▲ raises the score, ▼ lowers it, ? is an input we do not have, • is a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

Raising the score
Cost per hour$0.25/hr
Price per hour of game. It moves the score inside the ceiling reviews set. That is today's sale price. Normally $1.56/hr
MonetizationNone
Checked: no in-game purchases or loot boxes. That earns a small credit unless Steam lists in-app purchases
Holding it back
Reviews
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
For context
Refunds1 of 298 reviews
Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

What players say

A good game that stands out from the usual tower defense formula. Instead of building defense, you lead an attacking squad through ennemy defenses. I especially enjoyed the early levels, which i found much more interesting than the later ones. 100% Completion Time : 28.5H Completion Difficulty : 5/10 Playthroughs : 1-2 + mission cleanup Missables : None Notable requirements : All story mode and squad assault mode...

This game puts a unique twist on the tower defense genre by having you lead the attack instead of building defenses. Planning routes and supporting your convoy is more engaging than expected, although some levels become quite challenging as you progress. Overall, it's a fun game with a fresh and creative concept. 8.5/10

Trying to break through the war like a bear on ice - slippery, dangerous, and unpredictable. Graphics are like a cartoon and tactics like chess, but with cool weapons and explosions!
