How it feels

A fast-paced tower defense where you must dynamically react to and counterattack human troops that breach your defenses.

What players say

Players describe this as a competent but unremarkable tower defense game. It breaks from the series' signature reverse-TD formula, which some find disappointing. The tech tree and multiple difficulty options add some depth, but many feel it lacks the uniqueness of other Anomaly titles.
