A tower defense game... Without towers!? That's how the Malaysian developer Kurechii describes their latest game, "Tiny Guardians". As a big fan of tower defense, and a big fan of cute indie games, this game jumped out at me immediately. "Tiny Guardians" tasks you with protecting a girl named Lunalie on her journey across a bunch of unique and beautiful landscapes. This game was released on mobile devices a few years ago, but this is the brand-new Steam version (and everything is better on PC).
The cards you play to summon guardians have some of my FAVORITE art in the game, though. Every time I level up a guardian in the field I get the urge to take a screenshot just to go back and look at it again. Each level of a card has different art, and they all look absolutely fantastic. I'm having a lot of fun with "Tiny Guardians". It's semi-casual, but just challenging enough that it hasn't gotten boring or tiring. The tough battles are just hard enough that if you run into something easy, it's a breath of fresh air rather than a disappointment. I will say that after a while I start to wish I was playing on mobile rather than a desktop. It FEELS like a mobile game for sure. The only reason I love the PC version is the high-resolution art that I can't get enough of. You can buy "Tiny Guardians" on Steam for $9.99 or your regional equivalent. -Justin Graphics: PERFECT Sound: GOOD Gameplay: GREAT Value: GREAT OVERALL: GREAT Kurechii:Website: http://kurechii.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/kurechii Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kurechii/ FULL DISCLOSURE: this game was provided to A-To-J Connections free-of-charge by the developers in order to write this review.
