Slant community chat on DiscourseCon Random respawns can lead to instant death
The game often sees players respawn right next to a large enemy which leads to them instantly dying, this can be frustrating when it happens a lot to a player.
Con Frustrating gameplay
It can be frustrating when you get really big and get eaten by someone either when they pop you with a virus or are just even bigger than you are.
Pro Deep gameplay
While looking overly simplistic there is a good bit of strategy to the game as players can split their cell in order to confuse or surprise attack foes as well as spit out excess cells in order to change ones size.
Con Some may see the game as not a game
Incremental or as some know them "idle" games are not always received well by those looking for something with a bit more skill needed, basically the game will play itself at some point and from that point forward which can be pretty boring. So for those that are not interacting with the...
Pro You never know what is next
Each upgrade costs more and more cookies to purchase and each hidden upgrade is not made available until you reach the amount of cookies it costs, so no matter if you need 100 cookies to purchase a new Grandma or a trillion to purchase some other tool you will always be left feeling like you just...
Pro Addictive "gameplay"
While after 15 clicks the game can play itself, the constant goal of improving how many cookies one can click is pretty addictive in that there is always something to be improved upon.
Con May be difficult to find players for multiplayer
Depending on the time of day or day of the week it may be difficult to find players for the multiplayer part of the game. When it works it is fun but often there is no one to match with.
Pro Twist on normal Tower Defense
There is no predefined path for the enemies on the playing field, it is up to the user to build pre set mazes for the enemies to walk through that have towers placed in strategic points. basically it is up to the player to figure out how to best build a path for the enemies to be forced through. T...
Pro Unique look
The game is designed to take place on an office work desk with the elements of the game being hand drawn cannons and such. It makes for an original look that stands out from the many tower defense games out there.
Pro A few fun puzzle solving elements
Due to the fact that the player can not mine upwards, there needs to always be an avenue of escape to get back above ground. Whether this is leaving enough fuel in order to fly up or leaving dirt laid out in a certain way that the player can climb up.
Pro Random generation allows for lasting gameplay
Each time the game is started new, the dirt that one will be mining in is randomly generated. This allows for a new experience each time played but also a way to make each individuals experience different. This way the game has a longer shelf life thanks to each experience being different from the...
Con Short gameplay
Users have reported to being able to beat the game in around an hour. While the random generation allows for some replayability, the time that this game can be beaten means that a single play-though can be finished easily in one sitting. So for those looking for something to sink more time into, m...
