Hi,
The moving tower defense mechanic which are your heroes in this game is genuinely a good feature. it is fresh and adds a great layer of strategy to each mission. The different heroes are also well-designed — each one deals significantly more damage to certain types of enemies, and the way their attack patterns interact with those enemies is really well implemented. For example, when a hero focuses on area-of-effect damage, the game smartly spawns enemy groups that come in larger numbers but with lower health, which makes fights feel dynamic and satisfying.
That said, the grinding for upgrades feels unnecessary and only serves to slow down the pacing. It would’ve been much better if the upgrade grind was introduced after finishing the main story, so it could serve as a way to extend the gameplay rather than pad it out.
After a certain point, heroes become so powerful that strategy barely matters — it doesn’t really make a difference who’s attacking what anymore. The early part of the game is also quite slow; it takes a few missions before you even get access to most of your towers (heroes), which can make the opening feel like a slog.
Finally, the in-game economy is tedious and frustrating to deal with. It feels like unnecessary busywork that gets in the way of the fun parts of the game.
Overall, it’s a solid experience, great core mechanic — but it’s held back by grindy progression and a slow start. it’s good in concept but lacks in execution.

Surprisingly well-made Tower Defense game with some fun Halloween vibes. It's a mixy title and was always, but I remember liking it a lot.
Surreal but this developer did some moonlighting with this title by basically r34ing it and releasing it elsewhere... and is now abandonware. I kind of wish that version was also on Steam.
It's a serviceable Tower Defense. Maybe it wasn't fancy, but the developer clearly liked and understood the genre. I would say it's more about atmosphere and grind than strategy. It's like how some indie developers will make their game isometric just to make it manageable, when it really isn't RTS or ARPG or CRPG or so on. It's a little like that. You don't have the building you have in a normal TD game. Instead, the heroes can be upgraded in different ways.
I liked it. It's Halloween themed, but also has a lighter tone. Fair seasonal game.

Meh. Hero-type tower defence, so you can move your "towers". Nothing extra. But in the end, the old guy gets the girls, so thumbs up
