Look. Just buy the game already. You know you want to. After this many years, you don"t even need this review to tell you about the game. Just do it. If you don"t like the game, you can always challenge the devs to a PvP match for your refund. 12 million users can"t be wrong.

Early Access Review
First off, it"s an idle / incremental game. If you do not like games where you can let it sit for hours with no input to make numbers go up, this may not be the game for you. That being said, there are also plenty of active elements, and room for interaction outside of "Tower Testing."

So, you have a tower. You start a wave, aaaand, you just lost after a couple waves. Welcome to incremental gaming! Your loss came with some universal resources, so you convert them all into construction resources, built your workshop, and now you don"t have any workshop resources to upgrade anything. Start a wave, realize you are gaining XP per kill, and upgrade as you are shooting those cubes. Oof. Still dead after a dozen or so waves, but, more universal resources! Upgrade modules in the workshop, and now you are on your way to surviving your first 100 waves! Rinse and repeat.

That sounds kind of dull, though, doesn"t it? Upgrade, run your "Tower Testing" (where you watch your tower fend off countless waves of cubes), and repeat ad nauseum? Sounds like every other incremental out there... But wait! There"s more! As you upgrade your construction yard, you unlock several other buildings, each adding their own mechanics to the game. The Mine, were you drill for ores, Factory to refine those ores into resources, the Laboratory, where you run experiments to unlock more modules for your tower, Arcade, which has more games to play, and several more!

Give it a shot. If you like incrementals, this one is brilliant, AND it has a very responsive developer. Seriously. Check out the Discussions. The dev replies frequently, updates frequently, and is very open to suggestions and feedback.

Writing reviews sucks, by the way, but figured I"d totally put something down for this game, as it is definitely worth more than just hitting "Next In Queue." Check it out. It"s free. If you don"t like it, what are you losing? Nothing but a few hours. If you do like it, you"ll lose countless more!
