How it feels

A tense, brain-tickling puzzle where every shot bounces through your carefully placed mirrors and buildings, demanding careful resource juggling.

What players say

Players praise its inventive twist on tower defense, where you route glowing projectiles through power-ups and mirrors. They describe it as more of a puzzle game, with a forgiving sell-at-cost system that encourages experimentation. The campaign is considered short for the price. Opinions are mixed on the difficulty: some find it sharp after the tutorial, others say it stays fair.
