Rise of the Cones: Planetary Defense

PROS: I had zero crashes during my playthrough, and I’m currently on the final two maps for the level 60 challenges. Overall, I found the game entertaining. It’s certainly not amazing, its just..... OK. I’ll probably finish everything at around 7 hours of total playtime. For $10, getting roughly 7 hours of entertainment seems pretty reasonable to me. If that sounds worth it to you, grab it. CONS: Performance could be a serious problem if you have an older PC or lower-end hardware (compare to my specs). Based on how demanding things become later in the game, I could easily see anything above level 30 or so causing crashes or major issues. The other problem is that I didn’t actually find the game very challenging. That’s probably my biggest complaint, and it almost made me give the game a negative review. I don’t consider myself especially good at these types of games, or games in general, yet very little strategy was required to complete almost everything. Most of the game can be beaten with minimal planning or thought. There’s definitely some low-to-mid-level entertainment value here, although I can’t quite put my finger on what keeps me playing. Beyond that, there just isn’t much depth. I also wish there were more maps designed around simply being fun (there are only 5 maps with 3 wave modes 10, 20, 60). Like others have mentioned, most of the available maps seem built specifically to try and be a challenge rather than offering much experimentation. TLDR: I recommend it, if you just want several hours of simple, low-effort entertainment. Just don’t go into it expecting a particularly deep or difficult strategy game.

Game performance is just terrible on my Framework 13 under Linux.

Too short, no replayability. Once you get laser tower it's too easy, a 1-0-0 laser tower can solo any map until wave 7, giving you the possibility to buy a 0-4-2 refinery which will allow you to build on the entire map at wave 30/60, then it's just waiting.

fini en 9h, le concept est sympa, mais ça manque de profondeur sur tous les aspects du gameplay

Is that it?

As someone who has never played a tower defense game before, I did like it very much , even though its my first TD game it got me hooked. Pros: - Very pleasant visuals - Level design - Diverse enviroments Cons: - It could be a little more challenging

Really enjoying this game. Well done!
