The game freezes. Not nice after building up defenses and starting the offense. If you are going to do some tricks, do them at the beginning, not after spending time. Not nice. And a 10 score is deceiving.

Great to have a story. Interesting start, but then it's just a cleanup. It has the dreaded requirement to gather all the artifacts even though you've killed the creeper towers.

The story is interesting (and feels very much like it was made for These Times).

The beginning is interesting, but after that it's a bit sloggy- and the limitation on nullifiers and terps, but especially nullifiers, seems like an arbitrary way to slow the game down without actually adding any difficulty, which I'm never a fan of?

My game froze as well after reading the (upper middle i think) message. Saving and reloading did the trick.
