How it feels

A tense, methodical tactical game where you carefully weigh troop numbers before each attack on enemy towers.

What players say

Players describe this as a simple, short tower-capture game in space, with 15 levels lasting a few hours. Many wish it had a visible arrow when directing troops. A few reviewers suspect it is a low-effort asset flip from a Russian developer that changed publisher.
