"(The demo) manages to shake up a tired formula and keeps the player constantly thinking about their next move. I think the devs should get a super kudos because they managed to make an escort mission fun."

Thank you for the kind words, Splattercatgaming!

🔥 Fire Dragon or ❄️ Frost Dragon?

Both are ferocious and will obliterate any enemy that dares approach the city. But each one pairs differently with other upgrades, so choose wisely! 🐲

Upgrade them as you progress to keep the hordes at bay. 🛡️
