  Listen - obviously, I like this game. Obviously, I've played it a lot. I've beaten the campaign on all the various difficulties multiple times, I've played all the heroes, I've worked my way up all the various parts of the tech tree. This game is a blast. So why am I not recommending it? Simply put, the game is guilty of the cardinal sin of punishing the player for experimenting. And it's not a good type of punishment, like a Souls game. It's a bad type of punishment - making you re-play hours upon hours of gameplay if your experimentation doesn't pan out. If you want to explore all the heroes and techs, the game will punish you for it. If you want to try a new strategy, the game will punish you for it. If you have the GALL to take one step outside of the meta and try something new, the game will punish you severely for it. Did a certain tech on the tree look interesting? Well, too bad, turns out you actually literally can't beat this specific mission if you choose that tech over another tech, so you have to restart a campaign you've already put 20-30 hours into in order to choose the other tech. Did you want to play a certain hero? Well, too bad, turns out this hero is actually incapable of beating certain hero missions on harder difficulty settings, so you have to restart a campaign you've already put 20-30 hours into using a different hero. This game is as enjoyable as it is frustrating. It is as unique as it is obnoxious. It has as many terribly-designed elements as it does brilliantly-design elements. I hate it as much as I love it. This game can swallow weeks of your life, it can be very rewarding and very enjoyable... but honestly, in hindsight, after the hundreds of hours I've put into this game, the most potent feelings I remember are annoyance and frustration, caused by having to re-do entire missions dozens of times just because I dared to try something non-meta.

  For 50 days I prepared my walls and troops. Layers of fortifications and turrets. Constant troop rotations to ensure veterancy of all units. The predicted hoard arrived, a literal wave. The layers of traps, I spent weeks preparing, lasted moments against the pressure of rotting flesh. My wall lasted a few more moments before the hoard exploded into my first line, like water into a submarine. An orderly retreat behind my second line saved the majority of my force. It was not enough... Successive retreats and mounting losses. At the final line of defense the last of my troops held. The tidal wave of flesh showed no end. I used the last of my taxed resources to hastily construct one final wall around the command center. Sacrificing half of my remaining army as a rear guard, I sent the elite core into this final layer of fortification. It was just enough... The rear guard held nobly. Each taking dozens of the fallen with them, before they succumbed and fell themselves. They had bought all of the time possible. The last elites, backs touching the command center, held the line. As sections of wall fell, so did they begin to fall. Twenty-five became fifteen and at last the wave came to an end. This game is excellent. I have never had such close victories in an RTS as I have in this one. I sincerely hope that Numantian Games capitalizes on this success.

  ONLY Recommended to players who are up for a serious challenge. The game is brutally difficult. Even though there are lower difficulty settings, I feel that you will still have quite a challenge ahead of you taking this on. That aside, the game can be quite addictive in the same sense of something like Dark Souls - that 'I have to try just one more time' itch. It can become frustrating that you cannot rotate the camera - the graphics are purely 2D isometric. This makes it difficult to place structures in the correct location and you can end up blocking off units from getting to where you want them to go to. Spend some time watching Youtube videos on build layout first. Story campaign is disappointing.

  I cannot recommend this game at that pricetag. (Despite the hours I dumped on it) Ever since the game received the campaign, the devs just completely stopped giving it love. The game is fun, it has a lot of replay value, but there could be so much more; - better balancing - more unit types - more building types - BETTER MAP LAYOUTS (like elevation or anything) I know there are custom maps for that, but workshop should be to let players use their creativity, not to replace the devs from doing anything after releasing what everyone would've loved to be ''a great campaign''. Not this half assed campaign that has no relevance to the core gameplay mechanics of this game. I'd say go watch some videos of how it plays out before you make up your mind, this game has a lot to offer, but it can be super unforgiving for very little mistakes.

  Neat premise. Some of the campaign missions were pretty fun. The unskippable defense missions where you have to stop a horde with a set amount of resources were awful. This could have been a really fun game without those missions. I don't care about multiplayer or survival mode, just the campaign which had a few fun ideas but forced crappy playmodes.

  I played 1000 hours and I'm gonna play 1000 more. This game is simply amazing. Story, narrative and learning curve, economy and fall into place so nicely that I wonder what else could you want from it. I strongly recommend to try it and I definitely wait from the developers for part II. During my playtime I managed to beat campaign 3 times with different challenges in mind on hardest difficulty and I almost beat all survival levels. Skill wise I am still not that great and that's maybe the reason I see this game as being so great. Go ahead and try it

  Honestly a great strategy game. I am quite the strategy fan and this game perfectly combines the aspect of building a city, defending against enemies and having the real time strategy effect with the heroes missions. Would definitely recommend!
