Love it

I download games all of the time but then delete most of them for one reason or another. The ones I keep are the gems. This is a keeper. Strategy game with endless replayability and lots of content due to a long list of over 1,000 challenge missions.

4/5 stars because I believe the game could be expanded upon. There could be more enemies and more upgrades. The diversity of character builds seems lacking. You have something like a jump build, a throw build, or a shield build. But it doesn’t feel entirely complete.

Überragend.

Klassiker.

Challenging but fair

This has to be one of the best games i have ever played. It is perfectly balanced, really gets your brain working, and simple but rewarding gameplay. Seems like endless challenge levels and it took a good long while to lock in and beat the main quest before the endless challenges. I recommend this to anybody who likes to feel their brain physically turning its gears it gets you there for sure

Suggestions

Hey, author! The game is great and I just got my final 20th achievement. However, I have a few suggestions (or bug reports).
1. If you make a shield bash and it kicks you back, you may end up on the stairs to the next level. But if you also got a protection from damage, it will also be transferred to the next level and will last for one more turn. So damage protection works for two turns instead of one. Seems like a bug.
2. Sword demons can stand on the exit portal and prevent you from using it after the 16th level.
3. Bombers can throw bombs directly onto the stair tile and also prevent you from using it. This happens very often.

Thanks!

Fortune favors the PATIENT

Can’t believe this game is still around, played it on my Android device at least 5 years ago and loved it. As the title suggests this isn’t a run n gun type game; you’ll spend more time planning than acting; be patient when progressing and you’ll be handsomely rewarded!
