9.5/10 coop, 7.5/10 solo. I've many hours played outside of Steam as well. Fantastic tower defense & action RPG hybrid that allows you to customize your experience by focusing on towers ("traps"), or your hero, or both. There are really fun possibilities like tanking or freezing enemies on top of ground traps or creating synergies between your traps and hero skills. Better with coop as many maps are easier with 2 people covering 2 sides of the map and focusing on different damage types. Pros: - Many viable playstyles and trap combos - Good sound design - Some unique traps/towers I've not seen in other games before - You have lot of control over your hero's progression through skills & gear - Game speed and text scaling options available - Traps can't be destroyed, so you don't have to worry about keeping them alive or repairing them like in Orcs Must Die or Dungeon Defenders - Addictive - One of the best coop games I've ever played. Great for a coop partner who isn't a hardcore gamer, but there's enough to keep them entertained if they are - $1.99 is a great deal for this when it's on sale Cons: - Only 3 heroes, though they do each have a number of directions they can go in - You can't fully choose where to put traps, but this becomes less of an issue as you enable and buy upgrades for them since they become very strong. At least the locations are always in the enemy lanes and there are usually far more than you'll actually use - No matter what Steam controller settings you use, the game will always only launch with controller defaulted until you unplug it

A magnificent blend of diablo style rpg elements and tower defense. Similar to games like sanctum, but with more in depth character development part that includes talent trees for both traps and your character, crafting, equipping, shopping, co-op and more. I wish i knew the game was this good when it released so i could have supported it back then. Fills me with sadness that due to its niche nature it was dropped before even DLCs could have been released for it. Still, functional, fun and if you wanna max it out, it easily cover 20-40 hours of gameplay.

One of the best tower defence games I've ever played. I've played with each of the three classes, and each have a different playstyle, challenging you in various ways. The character talents, three rune slots, and tower points system provides a sweet, nearly endless variability in your playstyle or tactics. Even on particularly challenging levels, there are multiple approaches you can take to beat them. Let's talk about the Hero character. They're neither too broken (making any trap tactics obsolete), nor too weak (making them meaningless), making the game even more fun to play. Could the game be better? Probably, but I struggle to articulate why. Would I recommend this to anyone who likes Tower Defence and RPG? Absolutely.

Got this accidentally ( essentially free with the cheapo van helsing bundle sale ) and was pretty surprised overall. Theirs skill trees for individual towers, a character you can move around and click and use skills with aside from your normal towers, and certain gear drops actually change your character cosmetically. Their is a bit of grinding this game will have you do, but no complaints.. its pretty cool and grinding just means more entertainment. Only thing i dislike the most is you cant pick and choose where to place towers, they are premade per map and you can just build them where the devs allow you to, but each tower has skill trees and you get skill points from leveling up so its not as bad as it sounds.

(Before anything, know that the game doesn't have an epic ambiance like in the trailer, nor visuals like on the pictures.) If you love tower defense, go for it. I wish the upgrades came faster though. After many hours, I still didn't unlock many skills. A little disappointed to see my laptop's GTX1080 dropping fps with graphics settings on Very Low... I played other more recent games in Ultra without any fps drop. If Deathtrap 2 comes to life, please optimize something.
