The verdict
A short, addictive incremental tower defense where orc hordes flow like liquid. Skip it if you want lots of content or hate replaying levels to grind upgrades at $10.
Great for
Tower defense and incremental fans who want a short, satisfying Flash-game-style experience, ideally on sale
Main risk
Only about 12 levels, finished in 5-8 hours, with grinding that makes it feel overpriced at $10
What players love
Nostalgic Flash-game feel, fair value

Lazy level design and no respec or speed-up
