    Doughlings Invasion: Fun, complex and changelling with the perfect amount of adrenaline.

    Doughlings: Invasion shows what a talented developer can achieve with the right mindset and tools. Not only does this game bring back a much loved classic, but like Doughlings: Arcade, it revitalizes the dated concept through the use of implementing fresh mechanics, heaps of variation, and a solid all-round pace. Sure, the audio is still very hit and miss, but in the midst of how fun the game is, this is easy to forgive.

    I'm deeply saddened that I didn't enjoy Doughlings: Invasion nearly as much as its prequel, but it just may be a game that you would want to play. It's a good game, it simply wasn't vibing with me for various reasons. Hero Concept is a fantastic developer that creates quality games, and if you want to give Doughlings: Invasion a go, I would recommend you go ahead and try it out.

    If you like the idea of an indie version of Space Invaders with nifty power-ups then you're sure to have fun with Doughlings: Invasion.

    Yes it’s okay for a couple of hours of game time, but unfortunately this is one Space Invaders wannabe which will ultimately be left forgotten.

    Doughlings: Invasion trades in the Blockbusting, for an Alien Invasion. Just as fun as it's predecessor, this time though Your targets shootDoughlings: Invasion trades in the Blockbusting, for an Alien Invasion. Just as fun as it's predecessor, this time though Your targets shoot back! Putting a new twist on the classic Space Invader game play, giving you new tools as the Doughlings you get to play. Following the trend of it's spirit game, Douglings Invasion gradually picks up in pace and difficulty as you progress through the levels. Feeling like a mixture of modern puzzle games, and Classic arcades, this game can be a delight for nearly any age. Simple to learn, tough to master you'll be blasting away lines of evil invaders for hours. Things in this land have calmed down since Dr Morpheous saved the Doughlings from a meteor in Douglings Arcade, and that's where the story picks back up. The game takes on some replayability, as you have to unlock higher difficulty levels as you guide Dr Morpheuos quite sizable world you're defending. Save for a few of the oddities added by the Doughlings, this game plays just like it's spiritual predecessor. The whimsical music and sounds are fitting, and add to the fun. Arcade Classic fans, Grab this one up for a twist on an old Favorite.… Full Review »

It's quite addicting, has a lot of unique mechanics never seen in any other invader/arcade before. With a pretty challenging experience even in the Normal mode, it makes you want to play more and better everytime you game over. You build a muscle memory and after that, it's just grinding for hours. Amazing soundtracks, lots of cute cameos and references, makes the game even more enjoyable. Switch version just released yesterday and I bought it on there as well, so that I can experience the game portably. I'll be writing the same review with a little bit of change in the switch page and share my thoughts ~ If you want to have some quality time and kill your stress... Well, it may also make you feel stressed. But overcoming difficulties after getting better feels really good! Definitely recommend this game for everyone, especially old school gamers.… Full Review »

    Hic sıkılmadan günler geçirilinebilecek bir oyun. Ama biraz daha çeşitlilik getirilebilir
