What players say

Players praise the nostalgic mazing gameplay reminiscent of Warcraft 3 custom maps, but the keyboard-only tower placement and coin pickup mechanic feel clunky. Many wish for more tower variety, though the roguelite artifacts and co-op mode add depth. The game easily eats up hours.
