Fun overall if RNG goes well
The game is a fun tower defense type game but you build the path based on random pieces each round. The start of each match is a lot of fun but as the game goes on if you did not get plenty of towers you quickly get overrun fast and it’s all random what you might get. after a while you will need to defend two or three different roads but all with their own start and end point and that’s when the game get a bit unfair. As you are forced to build the same amount of defense for all new roads but with the same money and income you barely could keep up with a single road. Most times you will die from not being able to afford enough towers between all roads. Even if you aim to build new roads close to your older path’s towers you’ll never get the pieces you need to do so. The game needs some way to earn more cash , or strengthen all towers. Overall it’s a fun game but you’ll see once you are halfway through a level it gets gets very apparent you’re going to lose as each wave begins overwhelming you slowly. The game also needs an undo placement option, so many times I accidentally placed something that I did not mean to and it ruins your run as it’s final once a piece is set.

AI?
Inconsistent and random generation of play area. Definitely tuned for the player to lose. Each and every gam, the difficulty level would increase with no way to win (towers used to defend would not populate. I had a whole isle full of flags in one instance. The last game I played, I had 6-7 towers at an early stage and easily lost. Ridiculous game for the price.
