INTRODUCTION

OTHERWAR is an surprising mash-up of Tower Defense & Bullet Hell games. Build and manage fortifications to defend the Gate of Heaven against the Hordes of Hell, while soaring over the battlefields as the defender Angel, and meet the monsters in direct combat!

FEATURES

• BANISH THE HELLSPAWN. Embody the role of the defender angel who has been called forth to stem the tide of an encroaching hell horde. It falls upon your halo to plan out the defenses, however your adversaries shall not stand idly as they will blot out the sun with fire just to clip your wings. Yet, you are not defenseless as the angel can smite enemies on his own if need be.
• BRAVE THE BULLET HELL. Unlike other Tower Defense games, Otherwar’s cast of enemies will keep you on your toes as almost every enemy fires a different kind of projectile. From the ever-following eyeballs to slowly approaching wide spider webs and patterns of swirling leaves cast by undead treants. Amidst the chaos of battle, you will also have to be on the look-out for certain enemies such as necromancers, who, if allowed to linger for too long, will raise skeletons from the dead that may overwhelm your defenses.
• BUILD THE TOWER DEFENSE. Before each mission you will have a chance to select towers and skills that will aid you in battle. From straight-forward offensive towers to more situational constructs such as slowing fields that will bog down approaching enemies or emplacements that shoot down incoming projectiles. Besides structures, the angel can also upgrade his own skills during the battle and acquire new abilities between missions. Making each of the 9 levels a puzzle for you to solve.

FAN ART

Enemies are cool all have own look and own attacks to learn.

Difficulty options are nice and easy to understand.

Upgrades are cool as can make own build to suit own playstyle.

OVERALL SUMMARY

Overall the enemies are cool and all have own look and attacks to learn and difficulty is easy to understand and upgrades make own build is nice and choices when you level up help runs and has nice controls that are easy to learn. However for £4.99, challenging and easy to fail even on easy setting and can be awkward to place turrets in effective position and the story didn’t make me feel connected with the character or the world and no reason to replay the levels unless you are trying to get max stars or change difficulty.

Controls are easy to pick up and easy to understand.

Enemies are cool as alot of variety to them and all have own look and own attacks to learn to beat them.

Units are cool as all have own look and own stats and own uses aswell and fun use jet bike and power suit as very fun and also very cool if your buildings are alive they will spawn new units without needing more resources.

Heroes are cool as both have own uses and own look and feel to them such as Clawz ability to repair units and buildings very good for defence and Chips ability to overdrive units to move and attack faster to buildings ability to speed up spawning units.

Art style is nice and detailed with stuff to find and very fun with multiple points of interest.

Collectables and upgrades are cool as adds more lore and also different upgrades to suit own playstyle or to help with certain missions.

Buildings can be fiddly and easy place wrong way such as turrets face wrong way especially in battle as can be hectic placing them while being attacked.

Some of the levels and some of the challenges can be tricky to complete as may take bunch of tries.

No reason to replay the levels as can get all the collectables and stuff on first play of level or if not bothered by them then no reason to replay the level.

OVERALL SUMMARY

Strategically forge your squad of elite SWAT officers, equip them with the right weapons and gear for the mission, position your team to tactically breach criminal strongholds and quickly identify and neutralize threats in tense, life threatening scenarios. Follow the rules of engagement, communicate with your team, and execute flawlessly – failure is for the unprepared.

FAN ART

Story is fun and interesting.

Controls are easy to learn and understand.

Enemies are nice as all own look and all have own attacks to learn.

Art style is nice and detailed.

Upgrades are cool as alot of different uses and can adjust to suit own playstyle.

Controls are stiff in terms of movement and especially jumping felt stiff and rigid.

Combat is basic and stiff such as swinging melee and stuff not as smooth as hoped for.

World is big however feels very barren and empty not feels alive.

OVERALL SUMMARY

Overall story is fun and interesting, controls easy learn, enemies own look, attacks and nice art style and cool upgrades to suit style. However for £29.99, controls are stiff in terms of movement, jumping and combat is basic, stiff and the world is kinda dull and not feels alive.
