About

Tower & Tactics started as a group chat where a few of us kept sending each other screenshots of maps we couldn't beat. At some point we realised we were writing longer messages than most published reviews, so we moved everything to a proper site.,Every game we cover gets installed and played for at least a few days. We don't skim trailers and call it a review. If a tower defence game falls apart after the tenth wave, or a strategy title hides its real depth behind a slow tutorial, we want to know before we tell you about it.,We pick games by watching what people talk about, plus what lands in our inbox. Genre matters less than whether the game respects your time. Some picks are big names, some are small releases from tiny teams.,Nobody here gets paid to write nice things. We buy or download the games like anyone else, and if a title annoys us, that goes in the text too.
