What players say

Players enjoy Zoo Wars as a fast, cute tower-offense game with rounds under two minutes. They compare it to Clash Royale and board games, praising simple controls hiding deep timing and counterplay. Some call rock-paper-scissors interactions too luck-based but others defend the skill ceiling. Negatives include a slow character unlock and the lack of windowed mode.
