Glitchy and lost paid account

It kept crashing for me. I enjoyed it enough that I kept playing despite that and even spent some money. Until it stopped logging me in so I deleted the game and reinstalled. Upon reinstallation it made me go through the tutorial again. I tried deleting the “guest” account and logging in to my synced account but it overrode my synced account with data from the guest account, making all my progress (and purchases) gone. Wasted money and time.

9/10 for me

This game blew my mind. I never expected an anime tower defense game to be this good. The animations are perfect - so crisp. I love the attention to detail for each character. Every character design is so well thought out which is very rare for games these days. I love the stages as well. Each and every stage in this game has its own feel and provides its own challenges. The gacha rates are very fair as well - having a 3% chance for an SSR AND free summons everyday from dailies. I don’t know how this game isn’t bigger. I think my only suggestion would be adding more interactive content such as guilds so people can actually do something more than just solo battling. I think this game could really use that level of connection that a lot of other games thrive off of. Guild battles in a tower defense game would just be crazy. And with rift challenges already having a boss-like format I’m sure it wouldn’t be too hard for devs to come up with that type of content respectfully. Great game overall. Underrated for sure.

Meh

I can’t get into Tower Defense games that are P2W. I need to clarify that you can enjoy it for free, but the game has too many gacha or farming mechanics. It’s about getting lucky enough to summon the best units, awakening and limit breaking them and farming gear for them more than strategic thinking.

One of the best Tower Defense games out! But….

First off I 100% recommend. Even if it falls apart because of poor company economic decisions. Vespa has a winner if it can survive long enough to get some legs under it. I really hope they do. Graphics 5/5 Unit Uniqueness and Ability play 5/5 Story (loses some in translation) 4/5 Voice acting (Japanese, no english currently) 4/5 Story Mode flow 5/5 Events (Company is restructuring and may not be in a stable place to produce ongoing content) 2/5 Season Pass Value (Not really an option till level 20) 2/5 Special Banners Gacha ( 300 draws necessary for 100% banner pull, roughly 36,000 gems at 6,900 gems per 100 usd… so roughly 500 usd to get the guaranteed pull) 2/5 Regular Gacha (100 draws for 100% SSR pull very fair rate and even if you pull a SSR early it doesnt reset the guaranteed one!!!) 5/5 Mechanics (Easily learned and clear to regular players) 5/5

Excellent tower defense game

I play a lot of gacha games but I never got into the tower defense ones much. This one changed everything for me. Really great story, awesome art and characters, the game play is very fun. I love the quality of life for the players, with the offline dispatch and sweep ticket system so you don’t need to auto repeat stuff with your phone on all day. Doing dailies in this game take around 10-15 minutes which is a big key for keeping players long term.

The only downside to this game is there’s basically no YouTube/Reddit community supporting it, so there’s no simple way to figure out how to use the imprint system, how to roll the best weapons, how to use the labs and factories efficiently, like there’s a lot of depth to the game but unless I go down some crazy deep research hole (which I have zero interest in doing) a lot of these systems are difficult to understand.

Great gameplay

Gameplay is fantastic. Way more fun than Arknights. But the gacha is a little stingy

Great game overall but…

Honestly a fantastic game, great characters, great dialogue, very much to do to stay busy, however… The gacha system is straight up stupid, if you’re trying to pay for extra draws well then you better have hundreds of dollars willing to throw for a few measly draws, 20$ for one 10+1 draw is ridiculous. Just a straight up punch to the face for us paying players who like to spend a little to get a bit further. Give me 3000 diamond for 20$ and I’d consider it, don’t be greedy guys, the game is good! there’s no reason for such a high spending curve.

Great game. Wish it had auto battle :(

Still, I’m giving this 5 stars because it would be fun if I had a larger phone (or smaller fingers). The core of the game is good, the characters are fun. The controls just don’t work well enough to make progression enjoyable without some minimal auto battle (like automatic skill casting or something) to help.

Fun but worried about gacha

Fun game with good mechanics for tower defender and great quality of life. Biggest concern is pulling currency and the pink ssr units which have stupid rare rates: 0.40% woof. Takes a lot of the fun away when one cannot be competitive or enjoy the game without spending a lot of money. I had high hopes for a fair gacha because Vespa did such a good job with King’s Raid.

Crashes

The game crashes a lot on the maps. Which I have to repeat several times. Usually happens when either a skill is about or being used and large amounts of enemies on screen. Quite frustrating.

Awesome

Having a lot of fun so far. I haven’t experienced any crashes and the game has been running smoothly. The characters are beautiful; it’s really nice to play a game where the mouth moves when the character talks. No it’s not on Arknights level but that’s no reason to bash the game and give it poor reviews. I’m looking forward to what this game has to offer, and I hope there will be a few more gameplay modes in the future. Thank you for your hard work Developers and Artists.

Crashes

For me it crashes to the point that it’s unplayable seems like it could fun but I won’t be playing because it won’t let me your loss.

Time defender and arknights are awesome!!

Needs More Time in the Oven

It makes sense why this game didn't do so well over in Japan. The game still has some creases that need ironing: Camera angles are very janky and confusing, there's crashes and bugs, monetization is a concern since it's shard system, and graphics are sadly outdated. I was hoping for better since it's Vespa, but then again recently they screwed their best title, King's Raid, while creating games like this.

Wouldn't recommend investing time or money. If you're looking for a more fleshed out TD gacha, play Arknights.

Solid.

Solid game. Though the in-game camera leaves much to be desired. The game is actually pretty fun to play and difficult on its own way. One big downside for me is the interface of leveling hero. Leveling hero and there ability gets really repetitive especially on those missions where you NEED to level your characters to move forward. It would be much better if there was an all button to level them up.
