Just started out and holy smokes this is all I could have ever asked in a remake of one of my favourite RTS games of all time. The remaster (extended edition) was cool but I wanted a proper remake with all the QoL improvements that would come from it and they delivered spectacularly! I always preferred AoM over AoE and judging at how well AoE 4 was handled I just couldn't wait for this to drop.

I will write a proper review after I beat the campaign and just wanted to add a thumbs up for people looking to buy now.

It's also nice that the pricing is quite fair.

One of the best tower defence games I have ever played and I'm a veteran from the Warcraft 3 / Frozen Throne days. It's rare to see a TD game with so much obvious passion put into it and from a single developer it's nothing short of a masterpiece. Really, if you like TD then don't even think about not getting this game - it is worth every penny at full price and then some. I will update my review once I have much more time under my belt with this game - I just wanted to drop a positive review early in the launch cycle to help it out.

So far, this is an easy 9/10 and buy at full price recommendation.

It's a tad confusing, slow, and frustrating when you first start off but if you stick with it you'll find a very fun deck building roguelite tower defence game. The only real issue that I've been having is that the translation to English isn't done well at all so some things are confusing or just don't make any sense until you can figure out what's going on while playing. I think if the dev was able to explain things better the game would be a lot more fun sooner on but, again, if you stick with it past a couple hours you'll be having a good time.

This is a super solid tower defence game with mazing and elements sort of akin to the gem TD type mechanics where you wield elements to your benefit. I am glad I came across this as it is definitely one of the better tower defence games out there. My only real complaint would be that I want more content (especially more towers) but the content on offer, considering the price, is excellent so that's not a real complaint. This is definitely worth full price if you're into TD and on sale it is an absolute steal of a deal.

The best Trine to date! So much fun when played with others.

I just wish there was more.

I assume the developers asked themselves, "what would a tower defence meets catan game be like?" Well, they answered the question and that answer is one hell of a kick butt tower defence game.

So far it is a really fun tower defence game where you build the map which keeps things very fresh in term of replay-ability. There are absolutely tons of towers, units, buildings, and spells to keep anyone busy for a long time - this game has serious content compared to most tower defence games. There are five biomes upon launch which is the only part of this game that feels a bit lacking, though this may be an unfair take, and I hope they add more through updates. That being said, there is way more content than you would expect from such a cheap game so only four biomes is more of a nitpick rather than a complaint.

This game is absolutely worth full price and anyone who likes tower defence is going to like this game for sure.

I'm having way more fun with this than I ever could have anticipated.

I'd say this is super classic tower defence but that would be at least a decade before this game with Starcraft and Warcraft 3. Although, this would accurately be termed super classic stand alone tower defence where it is a tower defence game and that's all that it is. If you like tower defence games this helped cement the stand alone tower defence genre as we know it today.

Great game.

Complaint - Some people have had steam cloud not backup their saved games and this happened to me. I went from Win 10 to 11 with a fresh install and I lost my saved games. I far enough into the game that there is just no way I am starting again. I got a pack of saves for every chapter from their support which was nice but all of my choices made up to the point ween't in those saves and I had done a ton of side quests that weren't done as well so I just decided to uninstall and I will never finish it.

Review - it is a pretty competent slow paced first person shooter rpg and I enjoyed my time with it. There is nothing new or particularly interesting here but what they do is done well enough. It is worth a play if you like Robocop and some of the dry humour is pretty good. I wish I was able to finish the game to tell you more. It was worth it on sale for half price. I don't think it would have been worth it for full price but I didn't get to finish it so maybe I am wrong.

From what I was able to play it was a solid 7/10 and a good showing from a double A studio.
