What players say
Players praise the genetic algorithm that makes enemies adapt to their tactics, calling it clever and challenging. They also enjoy the mix of base building and rescuing humans. However, many report that the options menu does not work and some levels are short, with a few reviewers pointing out the limited content and expensive weapon upgrades.
