How it feels

A charming, low-stakes tower defense where you fling cartoonish spells to protect a bee-themed hive from invading bugs.

What players say

Players finish it in under an hour and call it an Angry Birds clone with spells instead of flinging. There is a combo system for chaining enemy kills, but many find the gameplay shallow and the graphics blurry, as if it were a mobile port.
