A sci-fi roomscale VR Tower Defense game. Strategize to destroy waves of rogue robots and assist the powerful turrets with a handheld drone. Build and collect resources and help evacuate your crew from the alien planet.
You take on the role of 1st officer Graves, tasked with protecting the surviving crew of the crashed "Avalon" spaceship on the alien planet Akris. The game immerses you in a 360-degree virtual environment, allowing you to strategize and defend from all angles.
The game provides a diverse array of upgradeable turrets, including machine gun, flamethrower, electric, and rocket towers. You can also place path blockers and mining harvesters to collect resources. The non-linear upgrade system lets you selectively invest in specific towers to fit your playstyle.
A key mechanic is the handheld drone under your control. You can use this drone to provide additional firepower, deploy special weapons, and even target enemy drones attempting to disrupt your defenses. The drone adds an active, participatory element to the tower defense experience.
As you progress through the 30 campaign levels, you'll encounter increasingly difficult waves of enemy robots with varying behaviors and strengths, including tanks, fast-moving robots, and well-armored spider-like machines. The levels take place across four distinct biomes - city, desert, snow, and lava - each presenting unique environments and tactical challenges.
Reviews praise the game's depth and strategic elements, requiring careful management of tower placement, drone support, and resource collection to successfully defend against the escalating enemy onslaught. The 3-star scoring system and optional objectives encourage replayability, as you strive to perfect your defenses and achieve maximum efficiency.
Visually, the game features a stylized, atmospheric presentation that immerses you in the alien world of Akris. The soundtrack and voice acting further enhance the sci-fi narrative, creating a cohesive audiovisual experience that contributes to the high-quality tower defense experience.
