How it feels

A slow-burn city builder where every mistake can wipe out your colony, with an ominous mystery lurking just beyond the walls.

What players say

Players split on this city builder and tower defense mix. Some find it addictive while others call it repetitive and unbalanced, with the pace between waves feeling too slow. The unique combination of genres gets praise, but the UI and lack of quality-of-life features frustrate many.
