How it feels

A tense and strategic tug-of-war where you command a convoy through alien-infested frozen wastelands, balancing offense and defense in real-time.

What players say

Players call this a solid sequel that expands the first game's tower-offense formula with transforming units that can switch between mobile and turret modes. The campaign is short but focused at 6-8 hours, though some find the pathing too restrictive. Players split on multiplayer: it exists but some report it cannot be launched.
