This game is fun and has potential however... the description is misleading, there is no deck building. There is only ONE map and it is too small to effectively experiment with wall layouts. I think every 5 difficulty levels should give a permanent map size increase, this would give 4 extra tiles in each direction. Without this, the game feels stale quickly. This is basically a trial version, most things are locked behind a single £6 purchase, wish this was clear in the description.

TLDR: Very good, but falls short of its true potential. Detail: Best tower defense I've found. I like that the mastery system lets you front-load your strategy before you begin the game, but it needs more options. There's too many must-picks and not enough interactions to make the rest anywhere near as good. The towers suffer from a similar issue. Some are much better than others. Combine the cleaver tower with area damage, optimize the rewards you get in mastery, and every level is cake.

Excellent game to come back to again and again. Plenty of viable builds. Matches last the perfect amount of time (5-10m once you become familiar with every upgrade). Unfortunately, the most interesting features are behind a paywall that—in my opinion after playing for quite a while—is too expensive. There simply isn't enough content for me to fully recommend the purchase. Still, there's plenty to do without paying, and there's also l always the possibility of future content updates.
