Developers are gone, their website defunct, this game will NOT be finished. If you ever see it Free or 85% Sale, its worth an hour or two of distraction but the game will not and can not be completed. Valve of course, will not take it off the Store under the "Well ehhh its an EA so..." line of excuses and because they can still get a cut of whatever sales come off of even a deader-than-dead game.
Whether the developer/s passed away or just gave up and ran, we'll probably never know. The end result is the same however.
scam. Fat Loot Games disappeared without a trace. Their website is expired on Squarespace. Last update on twitter in 2015. Valve needs to remove this game as it will never be finished. It's disgusting they are still charging 6.99 for it.

Ca aurait pu être un bon Tower Defense... malheureusement le développement s'est brusquement interrompu à la version 0.9.5!!
Vous y étiez presque, les gars!
Bref un gâchis, bugs, frames drop avec certaines "tours", succès qui ne se déverrouillent pas...
Si j'avais pu le finir, j'aurai quand même mis un vote positif mais ce n'est pas le cas.
Si vous cherchez Un excellent Tower defense dans le même genre (unit"s dans le rôle de tour, exp, et même équipement) -> https://store.steampowered.com/app/218410/Defenders_Quest_Valley_of_the_Forgotten_DX_edition/

It could have been a good Tower Defense ... unfortunately development abruptly stopped at version 0.9.5 !!
You were almost there, guys!
In short, a mess, bugs, frames drop with certain "towers", achievements that do not unlock ...
If I had been able to finish it, I would still have give it a positive vote, but I couldn't.

Nice little game for a few hours of quick fun.
Sadly just for a few hours and time until you get a challenge with each new map goes by very quickly.
It's a game for the casual gamer that also enjoys browser game and sorts - it very much reminds me of the looks, too.
Since the game is feeling very "small" it's hard to notice that it seems abandoned by its developers. If this was a serious attempt of making a good game it should be developed faster/constantly.
At this stage one can play one region of little challanges - already some bugs there that can hang up the game in a screen where you want to enter a village to trade some stuff...
Another reagion of little challenges follows ontop of the first but sadly I couldnt get it to run properly without hanging up the game in a state where I have still this nicely colored game somehow running - but no clue where to click at, so it's bugged..
After all if the game was just 1-2 bucks it'd be a nice little game for a quick "install-play two hours-deinstall-stay smiling".
But 10 bucks very much overvalues this scope of game and since the developers seem to have abandoned it I dont expect the game to grow up to its price in time.
Conclusio: Dont buy, if you are interested in this game, better follow it and see if it's made any relevant progress in a year.
Game still in EA. No update in over a year. Developer has not been seen on discussion boards. Game appears abandoned. Cannot recommend.
It's a pretty cool little game. I like how every creature is obtainable. There's a synergistic nature between the creatures' abilities. It's this synergy that keeps creatures valuable when other, higher tier, creatures become available.
Beat the entire game in under two hours... needs a lot more content and they are talking about almost completing the game.
Great progress! Already enjoying the game as-is... nicely satisfies the "monster building" center of my brain. Looking forward to seeing what comes next.
At the moment, the game has a single player campaign that lasts about 40 minutes, and two endless levels.
The game is NOT worth 9 bucks. It does not have 9 hours worth of content.
Only get this game if a ton more content is added, or the price drops down for about 2 bucks.
The game has potentional. Right now I would say it has the frame work to be a great game, however I managed to get all the achievements, which you get by reaching level 200 in endless mode, pretty easy. They need more layered minions and higher cap than 6 gaurdians per level just so the difficulty can be raised without causing you to have to grind levels which would be no fun. But for the full price I would expect like 100 levels when finished seeing how there are similar games, like gem TD, can be played online for free granted the new gem TD has a paywall :-/.
So after the tutorial level you get to pick one 4 star card that will carry you, that would have been enough .. But it seems like you also start with (what seems like) all the 1 star pets, this would be a chance to have me craft a lot of pets, but instead I found out that the pets I started with were good enough to deal with these first levels, so no need to worry myself with that, instead I could focus on getting the "best" pets.
And it seems one can upgrade the items so far that you get all the 4 star pets by just farming a bit on the early levels, ain't they supposed to be for the late game? Why am I given a chance to even make them at this point..
So I got my team of 4 stars and found a combination that seems to work for every level, which again made it less entertaining (the pigcow is too OP). The only stat upgrade necessary on the pet cards is speed, and you can buff their range up while playing to cover a large area pretty well, a bit too well for my taste, their base range could have been put to more use, and instead limit their max range, maybe swapping pet locations could be a strategy then, as some levels do have quite a few empty pedestals.
The game comes with a good amount of resolution options, but it will still appear pixelated in many of its images. (which I really don't mind, but just pointing it out in case some do)
So my biggest let downs are:
- to many handouts at the beginning
- no reason to change strategy
- no restriction on the crafting system
.. nothing a bit of balancing and readjustment can't fix, so if it get fixed then you can totally ignore this.
Last Updated June 14th 2015
Developers abandoned the game
Was a fun game, had a good bit of potential
Probably either didn't have enough funds or blew it all on the art designer
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The game has a cutsey sort of art style not usually seen in tower defense games, but don't let that deter you. There are real decisions to be made in determining which guardians to take with you into a level, where to place them, and how to spend your limited upgrade points.
I'm not usually one for crafting in games, but I find I don't mind it in this game. You collect crafting materials each time you complete a level. It gives you an excuse to replay old levels using new strategies and still feel like you are making progress in the game.
Some of the initial reviews talk about a lack of content, but that's no longer the case. With early access updates they've added enough content to make it plenty worth the asking price at this point.
I really enjoy this game. I'm not even usually a huge tower defense fan, but I'm hooked on this one. The graphics are phenomenal and the play is just downright fun.
Without a doubt I am a fan! I'd suggest giving Soul Locus a try. You won't be disappointed! It's both easy to get the hang out, yet it always presents an enjoyable challenge.
EDIT: Abandonware game, avoid at all costs.
Below review written more than 5 years ago.
A whimsical Tower Defense... with a play style that reminds me of Dwarves Vs Giants from Kongregate.
Unfortunately, it needs a LOT of polish yet... but I think that this has some good potential. I'll update this review as the game receives its updates.
EDIT: 8/29 - A few updates have come, and they've mostly focused on the summons, (I think.) Certainly not the enemies. It's nice to see that they are still putting effort into the system, but they still have a flaw that comes often in tower defense games with portals and speed increases... and that is; attacks can often miss when speed is increased. Yes, and 4x speed, a guardian with long range will fire on enemies during teleport, and for some reason the tracking of missiles in 4x speed is not properly proportionate to the movement of enemies, so a lot of shots will miss, whereas when it's slowed down they won't. Still, I'm looking forward to seeing how this thing develops.
From the short time I have played this game, I can already tell this will become an addicting game. Use different creatures to defeat little squirming eyeballs to protect the creature at the end. Love the concept of the game and I absolutely love the music which is done by Steam's own Abbey Road Fox aka Fox Amoore.
Fun and interesting mix of tower defense and card battler! Looking forward to future updates. :)
This game is super addicting! I got it two days ago and I've already clocked over seven hours. I only have a couple of gripes with it, but they don't ruin the experience for me.
-The only window size available for windowed mode (at least for me) is one that still takes up my whole screen anyway, so either I can't see my desktop toolbar or I can't see how much Focus I've built up
-There isn't a lot to do once you've beaten the five main levels twice. I've spent the majority of my time grinding in Survival Mode
But like I said, those don't ruin the experience for me in the slightest. Great graphics, fun mechanics, and I can't wait for the full release!
I am really digging this game!
Right now there is not a large amount of content, which is expected in an early access game. However, what is available is polished and super addicting. There are many more things to come and I cannot wait. The artstyle is cute and enjoyable, mechanics are pretty cool so far, and overall it is a very solid game. Im ready to see how crafting and quests are implemented!
If you like Tower defence, collectible cards, pokemon, or progression focused games, you will want to pick this one up. I give it an easy 9/10. On final release im sure I will lose some sleep.
Interesting and fun take on tower defense. I particularly like the sense of progression and character as you improve your guardians.
