GAIA 2200 Reviews

Is the game fun? Yes, but within the first 1 hour of playing I crashing in game. This is one of the few games that has ever crashed for me. It tends to crash in the "survival/endless" mode a lot more than other levels. The game play is exactly like the videos, thus expect at some points you just can't keep up & randomly spam as much as you can. Achievements are obtained via playing the game, (most of them) a few are RNG based, but it isn't bad. Pro(s): The graphics are crisp & clean The enemies look good The spells clearly have "combo's/sync" together. Heroes/towers (6 of them) sort of have different strengths. Over all message of the game is geared towards environmental warnings which is nice. Con(s): Game Crashing Short, within the first 1 1/2 hours I beat every level available. Sometimes it felt overwhelming... I mean it feels like unless I myself am a robot I cannot beat a level. Not because of the "thinking" and "strategy portion" but because it's too much click here, click here, click here, click here, move this here, spam this, spam that. RNG at times Game is short for a TD.

With 2 hours in, I'll jump the gun. This is a hectic lane-based defense game relying on tapping power-ups all over the place and moving your heroes around between lanes. There are four directions with 5 lanes in every direction. There are a dozen levels or so, and you have to pass them at least three times each (I'm on the second lap). The ugly: * Smartphone port. * Lots of tap mechanics that only really works well on phones and tablets. * Entire levels dedicated to tapping enemies (well, one level really). * No hotkeys. * Can't close dialogs with escape. But escape opens a quit-dialog. * Escape opens a new quit-modal every time, and you have to close all of them. * No pause. (Not even the quit dialog(s) pauses the game.) * There are bad translations all over the place. Sometimes incomprehensible. * You are handed money after losing a few times. It feels really cheap. The not so ugly: * The graphics are crisp and colourful and does not suffer much from having been scaled from mobile. * I'd say the idea and implementation is fairly unique, but maybe that's me who haven't played enough games. * The game feels polished. The upgrades are atleast somewhat balanced. * The first trip through the levels was pretty bland. Much more hectic tapping than actual strategy. * When the second "classic mode" unlocks, that feels much more sane and you have to actually consider where you invest your upgrade points. (Upgrade points are refundable at any time.) That's all I have for now. It actually seems promising and the gameplay has grown a bit on me. But I still feel a bit dumb for participating in all this tapping using a mouse. The game is likely much better on a handheld device. I cautiosly recommend, but not at full price.
