There was an old legend that told a brave tale,
That a player would came to help us prevail.
Wherever he clicked a building would stand.
Together we'd fight to reclaim our land.
He would swipe with his mouse to show us the way.
Tireless. Fearless. He would battle all day...
And into the wee hours of the night!
If we weren't victorious he'd continue the fight.
And now you are here. The legend fulfilled.
You will lead us to battle, purge the land and rebuild.

Crashes a LOT, and the mouse can be really laggy
Fun little tower defence game otherwise, not much depth.
Worth the 50p I paid in the sale but I wouldn't pay full price for this...
Tower Dwellers is a genuinely but badly made tower defense game that seems to have been designed for mobile app stores but was released on Steam by mistake. This will cause great embarrassment at the next finance meeting when they ask about what the mobile revenue for the game was. Regardless this is basically a ripoff of Kingdom Rush, but trying to be even more jokey (one of your attacks is to throw chickens at the enemies). Like Kingdom Rush, you have "soldier" towers that produce troops that stand on the pathway. However there's also buildings you can build adjacent to the soldier towers (instead of more towers) that equip/enhance the troops. Clever idea, but it's not enough to save the otherwise dismal game (and it some ways that's a shame, this could have been so much better than it turned out to be).
From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard.
From my experience with the game, it's somewhat bug riddled and has design/implementation/stability problems that will render this unplayable for many gamers. The game is unpolished and badly optimised, with sluggishness, freezes, crashes to desktop and a bunch of other issues and problems.
There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks. There's no way to ensure this is running at the native resolution of your display. There's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision.
The game features simple, cartoony 2D graphics, of the type you normally expect to see in low effort mobile apps. 3D graphics programming does require a degree of skill and competence and unfortunately not all developers have the budget or talent to deliver this, despite 3D graphics cards hitting the mainstream in the 1990's. Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing.
The controls can't be customised because the game has such a dumbed down, simplified interface that it's just iPhone screen tapping stuff. The fact that the interface is this dumbed down might be seen as a problem in itself, however... this is a fairly shallow experience if you're the kind of gamer that likes to play games with deep, rich control schemes and interaction. You'll get none of that here.
Some of the defects in the game can be attributed to the choice of using the Cocos Creator/Cocos2D game engine/toolset. This is a very poor quality toolset sometimes used by amateur developers as it's free (so they don't have to pay for GameMaker Studio) and doesn't require advanced game development skills, but unfortunately has very limited capabilities (it's arguably worse than GameMaker Studio). Just as you can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear, you can't make a great video game if you use a terrible engine.
This is indistinguishable from a mobile app, but they put this on Steam instead of the app stores by mistake. Was it rejected by Apple and Google (they do have more rigorous quality standards than Valve does for Steam, after all)?.
Regardless, for all intents and purposes Tower Dwellers might as well be a mobile app, it has the same limitations and dumbed down qualities. It's impossible to recommend such a game to PC gamers. We don't spend all this money building gaming rigs so we can pretend they're iPhones.
These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game.
Tower Dwellers didn't appeal much to the people who own a copy of the game, either. It has achievements, and they show us a very clear picture that the game didn't really capture any interest from gamers. The most commonly and easily attained achievement is for unlocking the first unit, trivial to get, but less than 36 percent of players bothered to get that far before uninstalling the game. Hardly a success story, gamers just weren't all that interested in the game.
Reviewing SteamDB to check how popular this game was with players reveals a surprise... there's a modest spike in player counts for the game. But this only happened once, around the same time that trading cards were applied to the game... so this is just card idlers getting their cards and moving on. A closer look at the numbers shows the game just has a couple of players every week running up the game and idling it for cards, then deleting it. We must ask how it benefits gamers for there to be so many games like this, with no merit as a serious game, that only generate sales from people idling and selling the trading cards.
So, should you buy this game? Is this one of the best of the 100,000+ games on Steam?
Tower Dwellers is relatively cheap at $3 USD, but it's not worth it. Given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price, this is impossible to recommend. This is also competing with over 11,000 free games available on Steam, many of them far better than this paid product.
Simply not a good game. The approach is really good, the maps, towers and heroes are really good. However, the game still struggles with performance problems and the difficulty of the 5-star levels is in no way commensurate with the potential of the towers.
