9/10 for Tower Defence Taur is a tower defense, shooter and strategy game hybrid with a sci-fi setting. The technologically advanced but peaceful world of Taurea refuses to share its knowledge with the militaristic Empire: this situation becomes a casus belli to warrant a full-scale invasion of the planet. Entrusted with complete control over the Prime Cannon, an experimental Tauri battle fortress, players will have to face increasingly difficult battles, manage resources, plan technology research and ultimately defeat the Overlord in command of the invading army. 🔵 Pros Successful mix of three different genres that delivers a varied and interesting gameplay from start to end. Good amount of weapons, towers, abilities and upgrades to deploy and research throughout the campaign. Spectacular battles with even hundreds of enemies to fight against at the same time. Simple but pleasant visual style with some destructibility, physics and high quality sci-fi effects. Well designed and paced progression system that scales difficulty as the game progresses almost perfectly. 🔴 Cons Weapon upgrade system relies too much on luck and can be frustrating. Enemy variety is mediocre: around halfway through the game you will already have seen all possible foes. Some balance problems with weapons, abilities and towers, with some being excellent and others borderline useless.

there is a reason mobile games cloned this, its good casual fun. no updates in a while but its a fully playable game as is with progression unlocks and a boss battle. Grab it on sale.

besides a lack of real replayability and some minor balancing issues, the game is really fun

Fun tower defender strategy game. My only wish is the dev's continued to update and add possible DLC's to the game to further the concept. 8 out of 10

Fun overall game, the campaign is fairly short but worthwhile if you get it on sale. Easy to pick up and put down if you only have a short amount of time to play.
