    Sadly the end result is that when its put up against the tower defense titles on the PC it really can't compete.

    A rather bland entry in an increasingly overcrowded genre.

    Only the most hardcore fans of Tower Defense will enjoy Sol Survivor.

The strategy that can be found in such games from time to time is also not present, in it's place a system of unlocks and abilities is supposed to keep the player entertained.

    The maps are bland and generally not well laid out. Towers can't be upgraded until you've beaten the campaign. There's no way to speed the game up or call the next wave even if you've killed everything.

    The sound is tending to awful and why I gave this a 4 and not a 5. It feels disconnected as it utterly generic. The graphics are simple and brown and would be better had they not been 3D. Placing turrets accurately when zoomed out is a pain but as there is no minimap you can't tell where the enemies are when zoomed in.

    Yuck.    … Full Review »
