So yeah, this is a fairly typical mobile TD with an in-game store that requires lots of grinding to unlock upgrades. It has only 5 tower types with 2 upgrades each, but still.
The gameplay itself is tedious. You have a bunch of different resources and have to send workers to gather them. The dragging works poorly sometimes, no idea why. Basically you have to perform a ton of actions just to get to engage in combat. Which is also boring.
It does kind of amuse me how they manage to "devolve" the genre. RTS died and spawned genres like MOBA and TD, which lacked the worker-based resource gathering that isn't exactly exciting. And this game just straight-up brought it back, in the worst way possible - you gather stuff between waves, then reassign bees to towers to fight. It's just awful.
