The pixel art is simple but good, you can clearly see what's going on.It has a spooky theme, great music, solid oldschool graphics, great towers with strong upgrades, high replayability, and just plain fun.Fun horror themed tower defense game with a nice bit of blood dripping depth where one can upgrade towers as the walking…The visuals and music/sound effects work really well together to create a fun, old-school atmosphere.Why it fits
