Dofense
Fun, challenging levels, the tower build queue is an amazing idea that I hope other games use in the future.
I do feel like many levels can be beaten easily by rushing the enemy spawner, but its up to you when you do this. I just wish the game made it harder, or more punishing to go for this early on.

Not your normal “generic” Tower Defense title - I like the way it challenges you beyond the norm (won’t spoil it!!)
Was initially put off by the lack of reviews, but was encouraged by the number of updates. Glad I took the chance.
Game forces you to carefully consider your priorities. Looking forward to progressing.

Castle Constructor
This game is way too addictive weirdly enough, there’s already so many things in the game (as of posting this it isn’t fully released) you can almost never get bored, after loading it up for the first time I played 8 hours straight of the game!

great little game, with lots of potential, a little buggy when it comes to the enemy ai and spawning but otherwise amazing. Hexagons are just perfect for star fortress fun

Death Crown
This is a simple, yet fast paced, game that takes me back to retro game vibes.
The main thing that pulled me in was the style of cut-scenes.
The graphics, while all 2-D pixelated, are quite enticing.
The artwork is dark medieval, and the color schemes are variable.
You beat levels to earn diamonds, to spend on upgrades.
You can upgrade gold mines, defense towers, or troop barracks.
Gold mines earn gold, towers turret intruders, barracks spawn your army.
You place the three buildings across the grid, strategically, to gain territory.

I was on the edge fist, but this is actually an awesome space & resource centric RTS–the famous Z by the Bitmap Brothers comes to mind–but Death Crown is much more minimalistic.
The in-game graphics are unusual but cool looking, however, at times it’s a difficult to see certain things in the heat of the battle (esp. in the human campaign DLC which features a lot more terrain types).
It takes some time figuring out the minute details of the simple but not really intuitive controls but this is part of the game, I think. I really like the music (which is rare) and the black-and-white line art cut scenes. However, the story is a bit vague, and only shown not told.

AIRA VR
A Tower Defense of the special kind.
I love Tower Defense and have been a big fan of the genre since Warcraft III. A while ago a friend of mine asked if I wanted to try out this Tower Defense VR game he developed. Intrigued because I never played a VR game before I said yes and stayed close to the development ever since. AIRA captured me immediately, the combination of Hero Tower Defense in which you can not only build towers but also control a hero in the midst of the action and VR is incredibly fun.

BeeFense BeeMastered
(I got this game free because I have the original beefense)
Beefense is a rts/ td hybrid. You send your bees to harvest resources in between waves. There are 4 resources- pollen, nectar, water, and honeydew.
Pollen- Money, used for building/ leveling up new towers and spawning new bees.
Nectar- Fuel. If it runs out, your bees will perform poorly.
Water- used to give towers a boost, improving firing rate, range, and I think damage.
Honeydew- Special Currency, used to unlock tower upgrades, beesearch, free caged bees, and buy ding balls and black ninja wasps.

Simple tower defense with a simple chummy plot. Having fun.
Downside….
Some things are not clear at all which leads to cons.
-
Rolling Dungballs with mouse and keyboard. Even after finding thru a 3rd party, it takes alot of finesse to right click and drag the ball.
-
After around the 15th mission, I had issues where I could select everything except my bees… Reboot problem sovled.
-
At mission 25, game decided to tell me what to due in German. I failed. Rebooted game told me to destroy glow things in English. Still failed. Rebooted, and killed a enemy base and was able to advance.
