Had a good time with this one. Good presentation. Found that the rats are perfect for blocking escape routes. That's the key!

The graphics and audio are great, but I'm a little confused about how to summon minions?

Could never find the player. I tried several times but the player never materialized.

Sorry but I really could not play the game

EDIT: Tried again and realized the you had to use the entities on the bar

It was a lot more fun

Could you post some instructions, really like the idea, just couldn't get it going really... nice lookin one though!

Pretty enjoyable simulation game, it took me a minute to figure out the controls to play the game but once I figured it out it was pretty fun! I like the simple graphics and the way the villagers run around after getting attacked was really funny, the only thing id suggest changing is how fast the day ends, sometimes i could only summon one thing before the day ended and i couldnt even summon the rest of the troops but other than that i enjoyed playing the game!

@beebster-games you dont actually have a character to move around, its just a still image over the town, kind of like clash of clans you have to place the monsters at the bottom around the place to terrorize the villagers, so you point your mouse where you want them to go and press the corresponding number to put that summon there, so for example you would press 3 to summon the rat onto a villager, same with the other summons

A cute game with a nice build up towards getting enough creatures to lay waste to the town. A healthy balance of slow high-damage vs. weaker but faster creatures seemed to be the best balance, with some lightning to finish things off on the side.

Nicely put together, vibing music. Well done!

Nice game, I felt rewarded for sticking it out until I got to kill all guys on the same day :)

Well done!

Spent more time than I should try to figure out the best strats haha, my end was:

Use the dog like thingy to try to group the villagers, than lighting bolt + ghost and use cyclops to close in those who run

@pwrs we have updated the site, so you can see the controls :) sorry for the inconvience.

The rat army rises, it was very fun to build it and conquer the village. I liked to try to rounding people up and putting monsters just in their path to trap them. Good game :thumbsup:

Same as other people, I was a bit confused by the controls, the art is really cute!
