    I love this game so much. I saw an ad for it on steam and downloaded the demo. I bought the full version as soon as it ended. Anyone else in love with this silly game? It's one of the better games I've played in a while.

    On a side note, I think I might be ADD...

    Looks funny, but next time please minimize all the other windows.

    The whole point of that was to show how ADD I was being...

    You can full screen the game, but I always play it and do other things

    Haha I tried the demo as well, fell in love with this wacky game which btw has garnered 9.0 and higher reviews so I bought it as well. Pop Cap are geniuses. :D

    A solid $10 game.

    Solid game, well worth $10. Lots of replayability.


    I found that they use Phoenix Wright music in it(Ace Attorney), which was interesting :p

    It looks like a simpler version of tower defense to me... Can anyone clarify that?

    It is. Simple but requires strategy.



    I also picked up Defense Grid for $5, thats another good TD on sale on Steam.

    It is a simpler tower defense type game. Actually its like a lot like a flash type game with quite a bit of charm. It's fun but I just bought Defense Grid. That should keep me occupied for a while. I'll probably pick this up when they have a weekend sale as I'm sure they will at some point.
