  Octogeddon has only been out for a couple hours so these are just my first impressions, but don't let its simple design fool you, this game is extremely entertaining and there is a good deal of depth in its gameplay. The soundtrack is catchy as flip and the art is very charming. So far I'd say this game is well worth its moddest price of $12. Can't wait to see what else it has to offer.

  This is unlike any other game I have played before. It feels like playing a tower defence game on attack as a giant monster.

  This game is beautiful. It definitely fits the "George Fan" style of taking a concept so insane that it makes you think, "Who even comes up with this shit?" The controls are so simple that it only takes two buttons to play the whole game, but the gameplay still manages to be challenging and fun. It does feature some rogue-like elements where after you lose lives (you normally start with 2, but you can get more) you have to start all over (there are some exceptions to this though). Overall an insanely fun little game by one of my favorite devs of all time. Highly recommend.

  [h1]The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.[/h1] Octogeddon has a lot of the DNA of the author’s previous game, Plants Vs Zombies. But whereas PvZ is finely tuned in balance towards casual and hardcore play, Octogeddon suffers from too much RNG and lack of complexity. [h1]The Good[/h1][list] [*]Colorful graphics very reminiscent of Plants Vs Zombies, light-hearted storyline and somewhat diverse enemy types will allow you to enjoy the main story as you progress through multiple cities that need to be crushed. [*]Music and game-sounds are top-notch and a lot more heavy-metal than Plants Vs Zombies. [*]Weapon Choices: There’s a ton of unique, different weapons, each with their own upgrades. [/list] [h1]The Bad[/h1][list] [*]Limited Replay value: there’s no real synergy between the different types of weapons you get. [*]Certain weapons are nearly useless: Angler-Light deals no damage and has shorter range than it’s upgraded form. The Snake-Cobra line of weapons is a newbie trap, they have extremely short range when compared to other, more useful weapons. The fully upgraded version costs way too much for the lack of range it has. [*]Gold Scarcity: Until you unlock all the permanent upgrades, you really feel the squeeze of not having enough gold to be able to function on the current level, this is made worse by not having the upgrades you need for said level (Not having light for cloaked enemies, not having the elephant for reflecting jellies etc.) [/list] [h1]The Ugly[/h1] [list] [*]RNG is very unfriendly to casual play: if you progress through the storyline too fast, the next replay will throw advanced enemies at you that require expensive upgrades to combat. [*]Cloaked Enemies: I don’t know how this enemy ability made it past beta-testing. It’s not fun to be stuck with no light or the just the angler-light because you have to highlight the enemy; then rotate to hit them with another weapon. This would be better if players could at least do half-damage to cloaked enemies, or have an ability to put the light on their cursor. [*]Too Much Visual Noise: Once you get 5+ heads, it becomes hard to track the various bullets/enemies flying into you at close range. [*]Lack of Complexity: It’s a two-button game when it could have done more. You can get up to three ‘pets’ with unique abilities, but they all have to be cast at the same time instead of being bound to individual hotkeys or buttons. [*]Near-Zero Interaction: There’s nothing to click on once in a level. I feel there’s a lost chance to have some interesting mechanics where you need to ‘pull’ armor off a mob so your tentacles can do damage, or even make the mouse a ‘mobile light’ for those unfun stealth enemies. [/list] In the end, this game has the potential to be fun, but even with 9-hours played, the repetition of shallow gameplay leaves much to be desired. [b]My Suggestion: Get it on sale, or wait for it on phone. [/b]

  The kind of game you expect from the developer of PVZ. A difficult, strategic, and addicting application with a cartoonish art style that is great for all ages.

  Rampage meets Rotozoa. If you know and like both of those games, you need to buy this one. This is an arcade game with simple controls (rotate left/right) but a deeper strategy, lots of power-ups, and an art style that will take you back to the good ol' days of PopCap before EA bought them out and injected them with terminal microtransactionitis.
