How it feels

A minimalist tower defense where planting trees and choosing random evolution paths makes each session feel like a calm but surprising strategic puzzle.

What players say

Players note the twist of planting trees to defend against ghosts in a minimalist tower defense game. There are 40 levels and an endless mode, but reviewers who played longer complain that towers cannot be removed, the four tree types feel limiting, and the lack of a windowed mode makes the game hard to stick with.
